| Unless where required or allowed by other conditions attached to this permission/consent, the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the information (including details on the proposed materials) provided on the application form and the following plans/drawings/documents – 4747BP-01, 4747LP-01, 4747EP-01 Reason: To define the permission in accordance with policies SWDPR01 and SWDPR03 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026 and the National Planning Policy Framework. |
| The manège hereby approved shall be for the personal use of the occupiers of 2 Drinkwater Cottages and shall not be used for any trade, business or equestrian enterprise whatsoever. Reason: The Local Planning Authority would wish to consider commercial proposals against their likely impact on the locality in accordance with policies SWDPR 06, 28 and 35. |
| Prior to the commencement of development hereby approved, a landscape and ecological management plan (LEMP) shall be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The content of the LEMP and shall be guided by the requirement to achieve Biodiversity Net Gain and the biodiversity gain plan and maintain this after implementation, and, at a minimum, must cover the following: a. Landscape and ecological aims and objectives of management b. Description and evaluation of the landscape and ecological features to be managed (both existing and proposed); c. Ecological trends and constraints on site that might influence management; d. Appropriate management options for achieving aims and objectives; e. A maintenance schedule for the first 5-year establishment period, and an annual work plan for on-going management capable of being rolled forward for a minimum of 30 years thereafter; f. Details (type and location) of any wildlife boxes and hibernacula g. Details of the body or organisation responsible for implementation of the plan; h. On-going monitoring and remedial measures. The plan shall also set out where the results of the monitoring show that both landscape and conservation aims and objectives of the LEMP are not being met, how contingencies and/or remedial action identified, agreed and implemented so that the development still delivers the fully functioning biodiversity objectives of the originally approved scheme. The LEMP will be implemented in accordance with the approved details. Reason: To ensure that the proposed development contributes to the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the site, and to ensure the proposal harmonises with the surroundings in accordance with policies SWDPR 28, SWDPR 29, SWDPR30 and SWDPR 34 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2021 -2041 (2026). |
| Prior to the first use of the development hereby permitted, the details set out in the submitted Water Management Statement shall be fully implemented and remain thereafter. Reason: To ensure development does not exacerbate flood risk and deals with surface water run-off from the site in a sustainable manner, in accordance with policies SWDPR 38 and SWDPR 39 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026. |
| Positive and Proactive Statement. In dealing with this application, the Council has worked with the applicant in the following ways: - considering the imposition of conditions.
