14.REASON FOR APPROVAL OF THE APPLICATION :- It is considered the benefit of creating two new dwellings and an improved streetscene is sufficient to outweigh the minor harms caused to the quality of adjoining bedroom accommodation or highways movements.

15.STATEMENT OF POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT: In dealing with this application Great Yarmouth Borough Council has actively sought to work with the applicant in a positive and proactive manner. It is confirmed that the shadow HRA submitted by the applicant has been assessed as being suitable for the Borough Council as competent authority to use as the HRA record for the determination of the planning application, in accordance with the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. In this instance the Borough Council has considered there is no likely significant effect on protected habitats arising solely from the development itself; and the development would contribute to the overall in-combination significant adverse effect identified by the Habitats Regulations Assessment Report for the Local Plan Core Strategy, but this effect can be adequately mitigated by the Habitats Monitoring and Mitigation Strategy; and that Strategy requires a payment of £185.93 per each additional dwelling towards the monitoring and mitigation provided through that Strategy, and the appropriate payment has been made.
16.It is hereby acknowledged that the application has been accompanied by the appropriate and necessary financial contributions for GIRAMS Habitat Impacts Mitigation amounting to £371.86 (received 01/08/22), and for off-site public open space provision and enhancement amounting to £2,881.24 (received 01/08/22).
