4.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.
5.NOTES - Please read the following notes carefully:- The applicant, developer and occupants are advised there used to be a train line running through the site, and as such there is a risk that unknown contamination could be present. The responsibility for the safe development and secure occupancy of the site rests with the developer. The local planning authority has determined the application on the basis of the information available to it, but this does not mean that the land is free from contamination.
6.NOTES - Please read the following notes carefully:- The applicant, developer and occupants are advised that in proposing any scheme for boundary treatments, the details presented should include provision for several 13cm x 13cm holes within the boundaries at ground level. This will ensure adequate access for hedgehogs and other small mammals. The submitted plans indicate a brick wall to be proposed along the western boundary; this is not considered to be appropriate in this location and another boundary treatment should be considered to better reflect its countryside location such as a post-and-rail fence with native hedge planting. The local planning authority can assist with pre-application advice if desired: see www.great-yarmouth.gov.uk/pre-application-planning-advice
