Agenda item

The applicant addressed the committee indicating that they had submitted a pre- application and that had positive feedback. It was a redundant bar with drive access and parking, and would have no negative impact on the conservation area.  There was no major issues, no highway issues, no objection from the Parish Council or the public, and matched other properties within the area.

 

Cllr Ogg spoke as the local ward member and stated that it was an old barn, dropping to bits and would only improve the area if it was granted.

 

Cllr Wells agreed with the previous speaker and felt it should be approved.

 

It was moved by Cllr Wells and seconded by Cllr Ross –

 

That planning permission be granted in accordance with the following conditions:

 

1.

 

The development must be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission.

The applicant or their successor in title shall submit photographs of the installed bat roosting and bird nesting features to the local planning authority, within two weeks of installation, as evidence of compliance with this condition. All biodiversity features shall be retained thereafter.

 

Reason

 

To conserve and enhance biodiversity in accordance with policies CS5 and CS17 of the North Lincolnshire Core Strategy.

 

9.

 

Unless otherwise agreed by the local planning authority, development other than that required to be carried out as part of an approved scheme of remediation must not commence until parts 1 to 4 below have been complied with. If unexpected contamination is found after development has begun, development must be halted on that part of the site affected by the unexpected contamination to the extent specified by the local planning authority in writing until part 4 has been complied with in relation to that contamination.

 

Part 1: Site Characteristics

 

A Phase 1 desk study shall be carried out to identify and evaluate all potential sources of contamination and the impacts on land and/or controlled waters, relevant to the site. The desk study shall establish a 'conceptual model' of the site and identify all plausible pollutant linkages. Furthermore, the assessment shall set objectives for intrusive site investigation works/Quantitative Risk Assessment (or state if none required). Two full copies of the desk study and a non-technical summary shall be submitted to the local planning authority for approval prior to proceeding to further site investigation.

 

An investigation and risk assessment, in addition to any assessment provided with the planning application, must be completed in accordance with a scheme to assess the nature and extent of any contamination on the site, whether or not it originates on the site. The contents of the scheme are subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority. The investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken by competent persons and a written report of the findings must be produced. The written report is subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority. The report of the findings must include:

 

(i) a survey of the extent, scale and nature of contamination;

 

(ii) an assessment of the potential risks to:

 

- human health;

 

- property (existing or proposed), including buildings, crops, livestock, pets, woodland, and service lines and pipes;

 

- adjoining land;

 

- groundwaters and surface waters;

 

- ecological systems;

 

- archaeological sites and ancient monuments;

 

(iii) an appraisal of remedial options, and a proposal of the preferred option(s).

 

This must be conducted in accordance with DEFRA and the Environment Agency's 'Model Procedures for the management of Land Contamination, CLR 11'.

 

Part 2: Submission of Remediation Scheme

 

A detailed remediation scheme to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use by removing unacceptable risks to human health, buildings and other property and the natural and historical environment must be prepared and is subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority. The scheme must include all works to be undertaken, proposed remediation objectives and remediation criteria, timetable of works and site management procedures. The scheme must ensure that the site will not qualify as contaminated land under Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 in relation to the intended use of the land after remediation.

 

Part 3: Implementation of Approved Remediation Scheme

 

The approved remediation scheme must be carried out in accordance with its terms prior to the commencement of development other than that required to carry out remediation unless otherwise agreed in writing by the local planning authority. The local planning authority must be given two weeks’ written notification of commencement of the remediation scheme works.

 

Following completion of measures identified in the approved remediation scheme, a verification report (referred to in PPS23 as a validation report) that demonstrates the effectiveness of the remediation carried out must be produced and is subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority.

 

Part 4: Reporting of Unexpected Contamination

 

In the event that contamination is found at any time when carrying out the approved development that was not previously identified it must be reported in writing immediately to the local planning authority. An investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken in accordance with the requirements of Part 1, and where remediation is necessary a remediation scheme must be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Part 2, which is subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority.

 

Following completion of measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a verification report must be prepared, which is subject to the approval in writing of the local planning authority in accordance with Part 3.

 

Reason

 

To ensure the site is safe for future users and construction workers.

 

10.

 

No trees shall be wilfully damaged or destroyed or uprooted, felled, lopped or topped nor any other works carried out which would cause damage to the root systems or otherwise threaten the lives of the trees without the previous written consent of the local planning authority. Any trees removed without such consent, or dying or being severely damaged, or becoming seriously diseased, shall be replaced with trees of such size and species as may be agreed with the local planning authority.

 

Reason

 

To protect the existing trees on the site.

 

11.

 

Details of replacement trees shown to be removed in the Arboricultural Implication Assessment reference EMB0317 / 6387 shall be submitted to and agreed in writing with the local planning authority prior to occupation of the dwelling hereby permitted. The approved replacement trees shall at the latest be planted in the first available planting season following occupation of the dwelling. If any tree dies or becomes diseased within five years of planting it shall be replaced in the next available planting season.

 

Reason

 

In the interests of preserving the character and appearance of the conservation area in pursuance of policies HE2 of the North Lincolnshire Local Plan and CS6 of the North Lincolnshire Core Strategy, and ensuring biodiversity net gain in accordance with policy CS17 of the North Lincolnshire Core Strategy.

 

12.

 

No development shall take place until details of the design and colour of the proposed boundary treatments have been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority and only the approved materials shall be used.

 

Reason

 

In the interests of preserving the character and appearance of the conservation area in pursuance of policies CS6 of the North Lincolnshire Core Strategy and HE2 of the North Lincolnshire Local Plan.

 

Informatives

 

1.

 

The proposed development is classed as a more sensitive end use and therefore we suggest you consider investigating the existing surface water drainage arrangements/layout for the development: you may need to consider upsizing the pipe network, thus increasing storage around your development to cater for more intense storm conditions. Although this is not a requirement in terms of surface water flood risk compliance, it would be good practice on your behalf to ensure an increased level of resilience for the development and its future occupiers.

 

2.

 

In determining this application, the council, as local planning authority, has taken account of the guidance in paragraph 38 of the National Planning Policy Framework in order to seek to secure sustainable development that improves the economic, social and environmental conditions of the area.

 

3.

 

The development hereby granted planning permission requires works to be carried out within the limits of the adopted (public) highway. Therefore:

 

- before ANY construction works take place within the limits of the highway you MUST contact the highway authority on telephone number 01724 297000 to arrange for the relevant permissions/licenses to be issued;

 

- before ANY service (utility) connections take place within the limits of the highway you MUST contact the highway authority on telephone number 01724 297319 to arrange for the relevant permissions/licenses to be issued.

 

Motion Carried.
