   Conditions - Notes - Reasons

Type Description
Condition The development hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of 3 years from the date of this permission.
Reason To comply with Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004).
Condition The development shall be carried out strictly in accordance with drawing nos. 14-659-003, 14-659-004, registered valid 9/3/2015.
Reason To ensure development is in accordance with the submitted drawings and to enable the Local Planning Authority to consider the impact of any changes to the approved plans.
Condition The development hereby permitted shall not be occupied unless and until highway improvement works to the access from the site to the A5 to incorporate operations including improved mobility splays, junction radii and dropped kerbing are complete and open to traffic. The design of such works shall comply with the requirements of the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges, including those relating to road safety and non-motorised user audits.
Reason To ensure that the A5 continues to serve its purposes as part of a national system of routes for through traffic in accordance with Section 10(2) of the Highways Act 1980 by minimising disruption on the motorway resulting from traffic entering and emerging from the application site in the interests of road safety.
Condition No works or development shall take place until full details (including planting plans, species size and proposed numbers/densities) of all proposed hard and soft landscape works, have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority and implemented as approved. All these works shall be carried out prior to the development, or any phase of the development, being first occupied/used, or in accordance with a programme approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. If within a period of five years from the date of the planting of any tree or shrub, they or any tree or shrub planted in replacement for them, are removed, uprooted or destroyed or die (or become in the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, seriously damaged or defective) another tree or shrub of the same species and size as that originally planted shall be planted at the same place, unless the Local Planning Authority gives its written consent to any variation.
Reason In the interests of the visual amenity of the area.
Condition This permission does not authorise the use of the land as a caravan site by any persons other than gypsies and travellers, as defined in Annex 1 of the Planning Policy for Traveller Sites, Communities and Local Government, 2015.
Reason This permission is being granted on the basis that it complies with the provisions of policy and guidance of relevance to gypsies and travellers, especially policy H6 of the West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy.
Condition At no time shall the site be occupied as a transient gypsy or traveller site as generally defined in the Planning Policy for Traveller Sites, Communities and Local Government, 2015.
Reason To prevent an undue succession of occupiers potentially of detriment to highway safety or amenity, and safeguard against any resultant pressure for an expansion of such a type of site, and to ensure that the site is occupied for as long as is practicable by any given singular family unit.
Condition No more than one mobile home and one day van, which shall all comply with the definition of ‘caravans’ as conferred by the Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960 (or any Act amending or re-enacting the said Act) shall be stationed on the site at any one time.
Reason To limit the scale of the development commensurate with the site constraints and characteristics (mindful that small increases in the number of features, especially ancillary ones in this case, may not necessarily result in a material change of use under the Planning Acts).
Condition Any mobile homes or day vans positioned on the site shall be capable of being towed on the public highway, in accordance with any relevant Highways legislation, without division into separate parts.
Reason To limit the scale and visual impact of the features comprising the approved development.
Condition No commercial activities shall take place on the land, including the storage of materials or any trade waste. No vehicle over 3.5 tonnes shall be stationed, parked or stored on the site.
Reason In the interests of preventing any commercial uses of detriment to rural amenity.
Condition Prior to the commencement of the development hereby approved, full details of any lighting to serve the site shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The lighting shall be strictly carried out in accordance with the said details.
Reason To keep the amount of any required lighting to a level proportionate to the operation of the site, in the interests of rural amenity.
Condition Prior to the occupation of the residential unit hereby approved or any associated occupation of any ancillary features on site, full details of the method of dealing with proposed foul sewage from the said unit shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The said method shall be implemented and maintained in accordance with those details.
Reason In the interests of rural and residential amenity.
Informative In making this determination, the Council has had regard to paragraphs 186 and 187 of the National Planning Policy Framework requiring pro-active measures seeking to improve a submitted scheme, in that it has sought details from the applicant as to the nature of the occupation of the caravan, and ensured that the access would be acceptable from a highway safety perspective.
Informative Drainage – the property does not benefit from mains drainage. As such any soakaway, treatment plant or other drainage system should be maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions to avoid issues of nuisance or pollution.
Informative Caravan sites – the applicant will need to progress an application with Environmental Improvement to obtain a caravan site licence prior to the first occupation or use of any caravan or mobile home.
Condition The touring caravan, mobile home and day room hereby approved shall all be sited in areas of Flood Zone 1, as shown on supporting drawing “Flood Map Extents” (14_659_Rev A). The mitigation measures shall be fully implemented prior to occupation and subsequently in accordance with the timing or phasing arrangements embodied within the scheme, or within any other period as may subsequently be agreed, in writing, by the local planning authority.
Reason To reduce the risk of flooding to the proposed development and future occupants.
Informative Apart from complying with the Highways and general requirements of conditions 2 and 3, any further material used to construct any part of the access, ramp, parking and turning areas, along with any other hard surface areas approved as part of this planning permission, would need to be constructed using suitable materials in accordance with the provisions of Section 121 of the NPPF. Any such material entering the site must be accompanied by the appropriate documentation and the applicant should be aware that failure to provide when requested, documentation that details the origin of materials imported to the site will result in the site being added to the Council’s prioritisation list of potentially contaminated sites and may result in the site being determined as ‘Contaminated Land’ under Part IIa of the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
