5.There shall be no occupation or beneficial use of the proposed extensions hereby approved until details of the preferred biodiversity enhancement measures to be provided have first been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The details shall include a site plan/block plan showing the proposed locations of the measures to be installed in the site and details or photographs of the proposed measure(s) . The biodiversity enhancement measures shall thereafter be carried out in strict accordance with the approved details prior to the use of the extensions and/or garage, and the biodiversity enhancement measures shall be retained as such in perpetuity. The reason for the condition is: - To provide biodiversity enhancements on site in accordance with the aims of Core Strategy (2015) Policy CS11.
6.INFORMATIVE: In accordance with the biodiversity condition, appropriate ecological/biodiversity enhancement measures shall include but shall not be limited to: · bird/owl/bat boxes (Locating your nestbox: Whether fixed to a tree or a wall, the height above ground is not critical to most species of bird as long as the box is clear of inquisitive humans and prowling cats. If there is no natural shelter, it is best to mount a box facing somewhere between south-east and north to avoid strong direct sunlight and the heaviest rain. The box should be tilted slightly forwards so that the roof may deflect the rain from the entrance. You can use nails to attach the box directly to a tree trunk or branch; or you can use rope or wire wrapped right around the box and trunk (remembering to protect the trunk from the wire cutting into it by using a piece of rubber underneath it). Both methods are satisfactory, but annual maintenance is easier if the box is wired and can be taken down easily for cleaning. The number of nestboxes which can be placed in a garden depends on the species you wish to attract. Many species are fiercely territorial, such as blue tits, and will not tolerate another pair close by; about 2 to 3 pairs per acre is the normal density for blue tits. Other species, such as the tree sparrow, which is a colonial nester, will happily nest side-by-side. Do not place your nestbox close to a birdtable or feeding area, as the regular comings and goings of other birds are likely to prevent breeding in the box.) (Locating your bat box: Bat boxes should be positioned at least 3 metres above the ground (5 metres for noctules) in a position that receives some direct sun for part of the day, with a clear flight path to the box, but preferably also with some tree cover nearby as protection from the wind. In the roof eaves, on a wall or fixed to a tree are all suitable sites.) · biodiversity enhancing planting and landscaping including trees, hedges and native species, wildflower planting and nectar rich planting for bees and night scented flowers for bats · measures to enhance opportunities for invertebrates including bug hotels/log piles, stone walls including a programme of implementation and maintenance · holes in fences and boundary treatment to allow species such as hedgehog to move across the site · bee bricks · tree planting
7.INFORMATIVE: The applicant is reminded that, under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as amended (section 1), it is an offence to remove, damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while the nest is in use or being built. Planning consent for a development does not provide a defence against prosecution under this act. Trees, scrub, rank vegetation and the shed on the application site are to be assumed to contain nesting birds between the 1st March and 31st August inclusive, unless a recent survey has been undertaken by a competent ecologist to assess the nesting bird activity on site during this period and has shown it is absolutely certain that nesting birds are not present.
8.INFORMATIVE: A Public Right of Way, known as Hopton-on-Sea Footpath 3 is aligned coincident with Cliff Lane, along the full length. The full legal extent of this footpath must remain open and accessible for the duration of the development and subsequent occupation.
9.INFORMATIVE: The applicant is strongly recommended to advise neighbouring businesses and residential occupiers of the proposals, including any periods of potentially significant disturbance e.g. demolition or piling, together with contact details in the event of problems.
10.INFORMATIVE: Due to the close proximity of other residential dwellings, the hours of any construction or refurbishment works should be restricted to reduce the likelihood of noise disturbance to: 0730 hours to 1830 hours Monday to Friday 0830 hours to 1330 hours Saturdays No work on Sundays or Bank Holidays.
11.REASON FOR APPROVAL OF THE APPLICATION :- The proposal meets the criteria for domestic additions set out in adopted policy H9 of the Local Plan Part 2.
