Construction Stages
| # | Construction Stage | Condition | Reason | Status |
| 1. | Begin development | Development to begin no later than 3 years from the date of permission | Construction to begin by 13-Apr-2025 | |
| 2. | During construction | Development to be carried out strictly in accordance with the details shown on the site location plan and approved drawings | For the avoidance of doubt and to secure a satisfactory form of development | Will comply with the plan |
| Pre-Commencement Conditions
Any pre-commencement conditions listed must be discharged before works commence on the site |
||||
| 3. | Before demolition | Bat survey in accordance with BCT Bat Surveys for Professional Ecologists.
If required a detailed mitigation plan submitted to and approved in writing |
To safeguard the presence and population of a protected species in line with UK and European Law | Expected Aug 2023 |
| 4. | Prior to begin development | a) A desktop study including the identification of the previous site uses, potential contaminants, and using this information, a diagrammatical representation for the site of all potential contaminant sources, pathways and receptors to be produced | To safeguard health, safety and the environment in accordance with the local council policies | Completed September 2022 |
| b) If identified necessary by the desktop study, a site investigation to be designed and submitted to and approved in writing prior to the investigation being carried out. The investigation must be comprehensive to enable:
i) Risk assessment relating to human health ii) Risk assessment relating to groundwater and surface waters associated on and off site iii) Refinement of the conceptual model iv) The development of a method statement detailing the remediation required |
Completed November 2022 | |||
| c) Site investigation undertaken | Completed Feb 2023 | |||
| d) A method statement submitted and approved in writing by the local planning authority prior to the remediation being carried out | Report expected to be submitted by April 2023 | |||
| If during development contamination not previously identified is found to be present at the site, no further development shall take place | Will only be known during construction | |||
| 5. | Prior to commencement of development | A sustainability statement including an energy hierarchy scheme for that phase and a programme of delivery of all proposed measures submitted and approved in writing by the local planning authority
a) How the development will reduce carbon emissions and utilise renewable energy b) measures to reduce the need for energy through energy efficiency methods using layout, building orientation, construction techniques and materials and natural ventilation methods c) how proposals will de-carbonise major development d) details of the building envelope (including u/r values and air tightness) e) how proposed materials respond in terms of embodied carbon f) consideration of how potential for energy from decentralised, low carbon and renewable energy sources can be maximised g) How the development optimised the use of multi-functional green infrastructure |
To ensure the creation of well-designed and sustainable buildings | Submission expected by July 2023 |
| 6. | Prior to commencement of development | Detailed surface water drainage scheme for the site, based on sustainable drainage principles has been submitted to and approved in writing to the local planning authority in consultation with the local lead flood authority
* undertake infiltration testing to clarify whether or not infiltration type drainage strategy is an appropriate means of managing the surface water runoff from the site |
To prevent the increased risk of flooding; to improve and protect water quality; to improve habitat and amenity; and to ensure the future maintenance of the sustainable drainage structures | Expected to be submitted in April 2023 |
| * Where not, limit the discharge rate generated by all rainfall events upto and including the 100 year plus 40% critical rain storm to 1 | Depending on WDC review | |||
| * provide detailed plans and drawings | ||||
| * provide evidence to show an agreement from Severn Trent Water to connect to the existing surface water network | ||||
| * provide plans supporting the exceedance and overland flow routing provided to date. | ||||
| Post Commencement Conditions | ||||
| 7. | Prior to occupation of the development | Detailed site-specific maintenance plan in consultation with the local lead flood authority. The plan should include:
i) name and contacts of the person responsible ii) plans showing the locations of features requiring maintenance and how these should be accessed iii) details on how surface water each relevant feature shall be maintained and managed for the life time of the development iv) be of a nature to allow an operator, who has no prior knowledge of the scheme, to conduct the required routine maintenance |
To ensure the future maintenance of the sustainable drainage structures | To be submitted post- construction |
| 8. | No development above slab level | Details of the finished floor levels of all buildings, together with details of existing and proposed site levels and the relationship with the adjacent land and buildings have been submitted and approved | To ensure sufficient information is submitted to demonstrate a satisfactory relationship between the proposed development and adjacent land and buildings in the interest of amenity | To be submitted during construction when slab level is finalised |
| 9. | No development above slab level | Samples of the external facing materials to be used have been submitted to and approved in writing | To ensure a satisfactory external appearance in the interests of the visual amenities of the locality | |
| 10. | Before occupation | Scheme for the provision of adequate water supplies and fire hydrants necessary for firefighting purposes at the site has been submitted to and approved in writing | In the interest of public safety from fire and the protection of Emergency Fire Fighters | Post construction |
| 11. | Prior to the first use of the development | Two 32amp (minimum) electric vehicle recharging points installed. Following verification details need to be submitted:
i) Plan/Photograph showing the location of the charging points ii) Technical data sheet for the charging point infrastructure iii) Confirmation of the charging speed in kWh |
To ensure mitigation against air quality impacts associated with the proposed development | Post construction |
| 12. | Before occupation | Car parking and manoeuvring areas indicated on the approved drawings have been provided and thereafter those areas be kept marked out and available for such use at all times | To ensure adequate off-street car parking and servicing facilities in the interests of both highway safety and visual / residential amenity | Post Construction |
| 13. | Prior to occupation | All first floor side facing windows in the east elevations shall be permanently glazed with obscured glass to a degree sufficient to conceal or hide the features of all physical objects from view and shall be non-opening unless the parts of the window that can be opened are more than 1.7 meters above the floor of the room in which the window is installed | To protect the privacy of users and occupiers of nearby properties | During construction |
