Informative – Highways

 

It will be necessary for the applicant to request that the necessary changes to the existing Traffic Regulation Order are undertaken by Wiltshire Council, including the necessary changes to road markings.  The total cost will be in the order of £4000 and the applicant should deposit the sum with the Council at the appropriate time in order to ensure that the order and works are implemented to meet the programme of works.  It will not be permitted that the new access is constructed until the order is made and the full cost of the order and works have been paid in advance.

 

Informative – Archaeology

 

With regard to condition 11 above the work should be conducted by a professional archaeological contractor in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation and mitigation agreed by the Local Planning Authority.  There will be a financial implication for the applicant.

 

Informative – Wessex Water

 

New water supply and waste water connections will be required from Wessex Water to serve this proposed development. Application forms and guidance information is available from the Developer Services web-pages at the website www.wessexwater.co.uk/developerservices

 

Please note that new regulations will require all sewer connections serving more than a single dwelling to be subject to a signed adoption agreement with Wessex Water before the connection can be made. These new regulations will be confirmed by DEFRA later this year.

 

Further information can be obtained from the New Connections Team by telephoning 01225 526222 for Water Supply and 01225 526333 for Waste Water.

On 1^st October 2011, in accordance with the Water Industry (Schemes for Adoption of Private Sewers) Regulations 2011, Wessex Water became responsible for the ownership and maintenance of thousands of kilometres of formerly private sewers and lateral drains (section 105a sewers). 

 

At the date of transfer many of these sewers are unrecorded on public sewer maps. These sewers can be located within property boundaries at the rear or side of any premises in addition to the existing public sewers shown on our record plans. They will commonly be affected by development proposals and we normally advise applicants to survey and plot these sewers on plans submitted for Planning or Building Regulations purposes.   

 

More information relating to this transfer can be found on our website. It is important to undertake a full survey of the site and surrounding land to determine the local drainage arrangements and to contact the sewer protection team on 01225 526333 at an early stage if you suspect that a section 105a sewer may be affected.
