RESOLVED: to grant Conditional Planning Permission subject to the following amended conditions:

Conditions

1.         The development must be begun not later than three years beginning with the date of this permission.

2.         The development hereby permitted shall be completed in accordance with the submitted plans received on the 6th November 2013 drawing no's: NG3/2/13, NG3/1/13 and NG5/5/13 and the revised plans received on 20th November 2013 drawing no's: NG3/4/13/AM1and NG3/3/13/AM1.

3.         Before development is commenced there shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Borough Council precise details and samples of the materials to be used in the external elevations of the proposed dwellings. Once approved the development shall be constructed in accordance with these approved details unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Borough Council.

4.         The proposal makes it necessary to amend the dropped vehicular footway crossing over the public highway. This will be required to be constructed in accordance with the Highway Authority specification to the satisfaction of the Local Planning Authority.

5.         The proposal makes it necessary for all drives, parking or turning areas to be surfaced in a hard bound material (not loose gravel). The surfaced drives and parking or turning areas shall then be maintained in such hard bound material for the life of the development.

Reasons

1.         In order to comply with Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.

2.         For the avoidance of doubt.

3.         To ensure a satisfactory development, in accordance with the aims of policy ENV1 of the Gedling Borough Replacement Local Plan (Certain Policies Saved 2008).

4.         In the interests of Highway safety

5.         To reduce the possibility of deleterious material being deposited on the public highway (loose material etc.)

Reasons for Decision

In the opinion of the Borough Council the proposed development results in no significant impact on neighbouring residential properties, highway safety or to the character or appearance of the site and the wider streetscene. The proposal therefore accords with Policy H10 (Extensions) and Policy ENV1 (Development Criteria) of the Gedling Borough Council Replacement Local Plan (Certain Policies Saved 2008).

Notes to Applicant

The attached permission is for development which will involve building up to, or close to, the boundary of the site.  Your attention is drawn to the fact that if you should need access to neighbouring land in another ownership in order to facilitate the construction of the building and its future maintenance you are advised to obtain permission from the owner of the land for such access before beginning your development.

Planning Statement - The Borough Council has worked positively and proactively with the applicant in accordance with paragraphs 186 to 187 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
