No.Condition Text
1.The proposal is considered unacceptable from a highway aspect due to the lack of information provided in respect traffic generation as distribution figures for the traffic associated with the proposed development of this site have not been provided. Furthermore inadequate details of the vehicular access have been provided on the submitted plan to assess the suitability of the proposal and is considered therefore to be contrary to policy TCM 13 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
2.Planning Policy Statement 25 requires those proposing development are responsible for providing a Flood Risk Assessment to assess the risks to all forms of flooding to and from the development taking climate change into account. The submitted Flood Risk Assessment contains inadequate information to demonstrate that the development and its users will be safe for the lifetime of the development.
3.Planning Policy Statement 23 requires those proposing development are responsible for providing a site investigation into contamination of the site due to previous commercial uses of the land and may have the potential to cause cotamination of controlled waters, no such survey has been submitted and the proposal is therefore contrary to Planning Policy Statement 23.
4.The Design and Access Statement does not adequately address the question of how crime prevention measures are to be dealt with in connection with the proposal.
5.The proposed development of a terrace of twelve three and a half storey houses in close proximity to the residential care home to the north east of the application site is considered to be an unneighbourly form of development likely to introduce an unnacceptable degree of overlooking and loss of visual amenity to the occupiers of the home contrary to the provision of Policy HOU15 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan. Furthermore it is considered that the Design and Access Statement does not adequately address how proposed development will be in keeping with the surrounding development given the proximity of the proposal to the single storey residential care home.
