Great Yarmouth Borough Council

No.	Condition Text
1.	The consultation document prepared by the Council before the designation of the Cliff Hill Conservation Area states that the Council will resist any proposals that would destroy the continuity of the street scene or facade and that when designing infill developments, notice needs to be taken of the general rhythm, outline and scale of the older existing buildings. The two-storey brick and tile part of the garage is a prominent building that contributes to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area. The demolition of this building and replacement with two cottages will result in the loss of the sense of enclosure and spacial quality that currently exists and would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area. Furthermore, in terms of design and appearance, the Council considers that the proposed cottages would not enhance the character and appearance of the Conservation Area. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies BNV9 and BNV10 of the Great Yarmouth Borough-Wide Local Plan.
2.	The Environment Agency has stated that there is a potential for contamination to be present at the site which may pose an unacceptable risk to controlled waters and has requested the submission of a preliminary risk assessment. Planning Policy Statement 23 states that applications should not be determined until information is provided to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority that the risk to controlled waters has been understood and can be controlled through appropriate measures. No such risk assessment has been submitted with the application and development of the site without the necessary assessment would be contrary to the requirements of PPS23.
