34.Informative Note 2 re: Condition 3 (Archaeology):- The applicant and developer are advised that in this case the programme of archaeological mitigatory work will need to commence with informative trial trenching to determine the scope and extent of any further mitigatory work that may be required (e.g. an archaeological excavation or monitoring of groundworks during construction). A brief for the archaeological work can be obtained from Norfolk County Council Historic Environment Service. The Historic Environment Service advises that the trial trenching should be carried out at an early stage in the preparation of the detailed designs so that the results can be fully considered in the design process.
35.Informative Note 3 re: Construction practices and the Construction Management Plan:- Air Quality during construction - The site will potentially generate a significant amount of dust during the construction process; therefore, the following measures should be employed: - An adequate supply of water shall be available for suppressing dust; - Mechanical cutting equipment with integral dust suppression should be used; - There shall be no burning of any materials on site, or burial of asbestos, which should instead be removed by an EA licenced waste carrier, and the waste transfer notes retained as evidence. Noise during construction - 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.
36.Informative Note 4 re: Dwelling design noise protection standards:- It is recommended that dwellings are constructed to a standard which achieves certain minimum sound protection, specifically, sound attenuation against external noise and ensure internal sound levels no greater than: a) 35dB LAeq(16 hour) in the main living rooms of the dwelling(s) (for daytime and evening use); and b) 30dB LAeq(8 hour)/45dB LAmax(fast) in the bedrooms of the dwelling(s) (for nightime use) in line with World Health Organisation guidance, with windows shut and other means of ventilation provided.
37.Informative Note 5 re: EV Charging:- Policy I1 of the Great Yarmouth Local Plan Part 2 requires the provision of electric vehicle (EV) car charging points on new developments.

Planning consent for a development does not provide a defence against prosecution under this act. Whilst trees and scrub are likely to contain nesting birds between 1st March and 31st August inclusive, buildings can also support nesting birds. If works occur during the nesting period a careful check of the building by a competent ecologist should be undertaken to assess the nesting bird activity on the site during this period and has shown it is absolutely certain that nesting birds are not present.
39.Informative Note 7 re: Fire hydrants:- Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service advise that the onus is on the developer to install the necessary hydrants, during construction, to the satisfaction of Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service at the developer's expense. Should there be any queries please call the Norfolk Fire Service on 0300 123 1165 or email firewaterofficer@norfolk.gov.uk.

41.Informative Note 9 re: Public Open Space provision The applicant and developer are advised that in accordance with the terms of the Section 106 Agreement, the Public Open Space provision within the development will need to be provided in accordance with an Open Space Scheme required to be submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority, and the details of the Open Space Scheme must address the Open Space Policies in place at the time of that scheme's assessment. It is considered necessary that the open space to be provided on site should comprise at least 947.1sqm of which at least 757.7sqm should be designed to perform the function of Informal Amenity open space and at least 189.4sqm should be designed to perform the function of Play Space, in accordance with the terms of current policy H4 and the adopted Open Space Supplementary Planning Document.

43.INFORMATIVE NOTE: HABITAT REGULATIONS ASSESSMENT: - The applicant and developer are advised that the development has been considered by Natural England in respect of its possible impacts on European Designated Sites. Natural England advise in their consultation response dated 19th January 2023, ref: 417580, that the specific measures (including financial contributions) to be provided in the development and associated Section 106 Agreement must be fulfilled to ensure the development prevents an adverse impact on the integrity of those European Site(s) for the duration of the proposed development. Further to the advice from Natural England, the Local Planning Authority is therefore satisfied, as competent authority under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), that the terms of the permission and its associated Section 106 Agreement will have the combined effect of ensuring the development passes the Appropriate Assessment required by the Habitat Regulations.
