The approved details shall be completed prior to the occupation of the development. Reason: To ensure a high quality development. |
| The development hereby approved shall not be occupied until sheltered, secure and accessible cycle parking has been provided in accordance with details to be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Thereafter the provision shall be retained for the purposes of cycle parking only at all times. Reason: To comply with the Council’s parking standards. |
| Prior to the occupation of the development hereby approved, details of refuse storage facilities to serve the apartments hereby permitted shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved refuse storage facilities shall be implemented prior to the first occupation of the development and retained thereafter. Reason: To ensure adequate refuse storage facilities are incorporated in the development and/or ensure high quality design in accordance with policies SWDP21 and SWDP33 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan. |
| Prior to the commencement of the external works, details to incorporate within the development hereby approved energy generation from renewable or low carbon sources equivalent to at least 10% of predicted energy requirements shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The approved details shall be implemented and operational prior to the first occupation of the development. Reason: To ensure the development meets the requirements of Policy SWDP 27 and associated guidance in the Renewable and Low Carbon Supplementary Planning Document and the aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework to mitigate the impact of climate change. |
| 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 immediately to the Local Planning Authority. The applicant is advised to immediately seek the advice of an independent geo-environmental consultant experienced in contaminated land risk assessment, including intrusive investigations and remediation. No further works should be undertaken in the areas of suspected contamination, other than that work required to be carried out as part of an approved remediation scheme, unless otherwise agreed by the Local Planning Authority, until requirements 1 to 4 below have been complied with: 1. Detailed site investigation and risk assessment must be undertaken by competent persons in accordance with the Environment Agency's 'Land Contamination: Risk Management' guidance and a written report of the findings produced. The risk assessment must be designed to assess the nature and extent of suspected contamination and approved by the Local Planning Authority prior to any further development taking place. 2. Where identified as necessary, a detailed remediation scheme to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use by removing unacceptable risks to identified receptors must be prepared and is subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority in advance of undertaking. The remediation scheme must ensure that the site will not qualify as Contaminated Land under Part 2A Environmental Protection Act 1990 in relation to the intended use of the land after remediation. 3. The approved remediation scheme must be carried out in accordance with its terms prior to the re-commencement of any site works in the areas of suspected contamination, other than that work required to carry out remediation, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority. 4. Following completion of measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a verification report that demonstrates the effectiveness of the remediation carried out must be produced and is subject to the approval of the Local Planning Authority prior to the occupation of any buildings on site. Reason: To ensure that the risks from land contamination to the future users of the land and neighbouring land are minimised, together with those to controlled waters, property, and ecosystems, and to ensure that the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors. |
