12.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 adopted Great Yarmouth 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.
13.NOTES - Please read the following notes carefully:- Occasionally European protected species, such as bats, can be found during the course of the development. In the event that this occurs, it is advised that the developer stops work immediately and seeks the advice of a suitably qualified ecological consultant.
