Reason: To conform with the requirements of Section 91 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. |
| The development hereby permitted shall be carried out and completed in accordance with the following approved plans and associated documents and the specifications and recommendations contained therein, except where otherwise stipulated by conditions attached to this permission:
Location plan PL001 Rev A
Existing site plan PL003
Proposed site plan PL004 Rev B
Site sections existing and proposed PL005
Spectator stand proposed elevations PL006
Design and Access Statement

Reason: To ensure compliance with the approved scheme. |
| Prior to the installation of any external lighting for the development hereby approved, a lighting design strategy shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The details shall show how and where external lighting will be installed (including the type of lighting), so that it can be clearly demonstrated that areas to be lit will not disturb or prevent nocturnal species using their territory. All external lighting shall be installed only in accordance with the specifications and locations set out in these details.
Reason: To protect nocturnal wildlife in accordance with the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), Circular 06/2005, paragraphs 180, 185 and 186 of the revised National Planning Policy Framework, Policy SWDP 22 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan 2016 and in order for the Council to comply with Part 3 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006. |
| No development shall take place (including vegetation/site clearance) until a Precautionary Working Method Statement (PWMS) for reptiles and amphibians has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved PWMS shall be implemented in full according to the specified timescales, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the local planning authority.
Reason: To ensure that reptiles and amphibians are protected in accordance with the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), Circular 06/2005, paragraphs 180, 185 and 186 of the National Planning Policy Framework (Chapter 15), policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development plan 2016, and in order for the Council to comply with Part 3 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006. |
| The Biodiversity Gain Plan shall be prepared in accordance with the recommendations in the consultancy report (Biodiversity Net Gain Report. Prepared by BLADE Ecology ltd., dated September 2024). The development shall not commence until a Habitat Management and Monitoring Plan (the HMMP), prepared in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan and including:
(a) a non-technical summary;
(b) the roles and responsibilities of the people or organisation(s) delivering the HMMP;
(c) the planned habitat creation and enhancement works to create or improve habitat to achieve the biodiversity net gain in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan;
(d) the management measures to maintain habitat in accordance with the approved Biodiversity Gain Plan for a period of 30 years from the completion of development; and
(e) the monitoring methodology and frequency in respect of the created or enhanced habitat to be submitted to the local planning authority,
has been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the local planning authority.
No development shall take place until:
(a) the habitat creation and enhancement works set out in the approved HMMP have been completed; and
(b) a completion report, evidencing the completed habitat enhancements, has been submitted to, and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
The created and habitat specified in the approved HMMP shall be managed and maintained in accordance with the approved HMMP.
Monitoring reports shall be submitted to local planning authority in writing in accordance with the methodology and frequency specified in the approved HMMP.
Reason: To ensure the development delivers a biodiversity net gain in accordance with Schedule 7A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and policy SWDP22 of the South Worcestershire Development plan 2016.

| If a protected species (such as any bat, great crested newt, dormouse, badger, reptile, barn owl or any nesting bird) is discovered using a feature on site that would be affected by the development or related works all activity which might affect the species at the locality should cease. If the discovery can be dealt with satisfactorily by the implementation of biodiversity mitigation measures that have already been drawn up by your ecological advisor and approved by the Local Planning Authority then these should be implemented. Otherwise a suitably experienced ecologist should be contacted and the situation assessed before works can proceed. This action is necessary to avoid possible prosecution and ensure compliance with the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (as amended), the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended), the Protection of Badgers Act 1992 and the Wild Mammals Act 1996. This advice note should be passed on to any persons or contractors carrying out the development/works. |
| The effect of paragraph 13 of Schedule 7A to the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 is that planning permission granted for the development of land in England is deemed to have been granted subject to the condition (the “biodiversity gain condition”) that development may not begin unless:
(a) a Biodiversity Gain Plan has been submitted to the planning authority, and
(b) the planning authority has approved the plan.
Subject to Paragraph 14(2) of Schedule 7A TCPA 1990 The biodiversity gain plan must include:
(a) information about the steps taken or to be taken to minimise the adverse effect of the development on the biodiversity of the onsite habitat and any other habitat;
(b) the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat;
(c) the post-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat.
