Agenda item

A report by the Case Officer is attached.

The Committee received a presentation from the Case Officer which set out the issues in respect of the application. The purpose of the report was to assess the merits of the application against the relevant national and local development plan policies and other material considerations and to consider a recommendation that permission be granted, subject to the prior completion of a Section 106 legal agreement and planning conditions.  He reported that Cranborne Chase & West Wiltshire Downs AONB had recently withdrawn their objection to the proposal on the grounds of visual and landscape impacts following some negotiation which led the officer to recommend an amendment to the published wording of condition 18 and to expand on the reason for the condition to make reference to the AONBs dark skies status and to secure the appropriate environmental zone standards for all external lighting within the scheme.

 

 

Members then had the opportunity to ask technical questions after which they heard a statement from Mr Chris Minors, the applicant, Persimmon Homes (Wessex) in support of the proposal.

 

Members then heard the views of Cllr Pip Ridout and Cllr Tony Jackson, the local Members, who were generally in support of the application and stressed the need for the new link road connecting Victoria Road and the Redrow estate to be delivered as part of the first phase of the development and sought to secure a local resident point of contact and adherence to the terms set out within the condition covering the need for a construction traffic management plan.  The Case Officer advised the Committee that conditions 8, 9 and 14 would address these matters.

 

Members sought clarification about the bus strategy (referenced under the summarised s106 heads of terms) and the proposed attenuation basins and pond which formed a key part of the applicant’s drainage strategy and asked about potential landscaping and the necessary management to avoid them becoming silted up, muddy and producing foul smells.  The Case Officer pointed out that the S106 would require bespoke clauses to address the need for a bus strategy to be agreed through negotiation with the bus network manager (employed by Wiltshire Council) as well having direct liaison with bus providers; and that the s106 would require clauses covering the setting up of a management company to be fully responsible for the management and maintenance of the SUDs infrastructure. Members also sought to include an additional planning informative to secure the provision of swift bricks, bat boxes and encourage the developer to be sensitive to allowing hedgehogs to freely pass through hedgerows as part of planting up gaps and completing the landscaping scheme.         

 

After some discussion, on the proposal of Cllr Andrew Davis, which was seconded by Cllr Fred Westmoreland,

 

Resolved:

k.            The ongoing monitoring, including compliance checks by a competent person(s) during construction and immediately post-completion of construction works.

 

The approved CEMP shall be adhered to and implemented throughout the construction period strictly in accordance with the approved details.

 

REASON: To ensure adequate protection, mitigation and compensation for protected species, priority species and priority habitats in accordance with submitted ecological reports.

 

NOTE: There shall be no burning of waste materials on the site during the demolition and construction phases.

 

10.         Notwithstanding the details submitted pursuant to the Victoria Road junction, no development shall commence until full engineering plan details of the proposed temporary traffic signalled controlled access to the site including details of its later change to a roundabout junction to serve both north and south sides of Victoria Road, have been submitted to and approved by the local planning authority. The submitted details shall include all local measures to facilitate pedestrian movement through the junction, including any temporary footways and the measures to be employed to ensure that future local disruption for the construction of a roundabout is minimised through appropriate road infrastructure provision. The junction shall be constructed in accordance with the details to be approved and prior to any other part of the site construction works commencing.

 

REASON: In the interests of road safety and sustainable transport opportunities.  

 

11.         No demolition, site clearance or development, including the construction of the signal controlled junction shall commence, and; no equipment, machinery or materials shall be brought on to site for the purpose of development within any particular phase, until a Tree and Hedgerow Protection Plan showing the exact position of each tree and hedgerow and their protective fencing in accordance with British Standard 5837: 2012: "Trees in Relation to Design, Demolition and Construction - Recommendations"; has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority, and;

 

The protective fencing shall be erected in accordance with the approved details. The protective fencing shall remain in place for the entire development phase and until all equipment, machinery and surplus materials have been removed from the site. Such fencing shall not be removed or breached during construction operations.

 

No retained tree/s shall be cut down, uprooted or destroyed, nor shall any retained tree/s be topped or lopped other than in accordance with the approved plans and particulars. Any topping or lopping approval shall be carried out in accordance British Standard 3998: 2010 "Tree Work - Recommendations" or arboricultural techniques where it can be demonstrated to be in the interest of good arboricultural practise.

 

If any retained tree is removed, uprooted, destroyed or dies, another tree shall be planted at the same place, at a size and species and planted at such time, that must be agreed in writing with the Local Planning Authority.

 

In this condition "retained tree and/or hedge" means an existing tree and hedgerow which is to be retained in accordance with the approved plans and particulars.

 

REASON:  To safeguard trees to be retained in the interests of amenity.

 

12.               No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence until a land contamination remediation strategy (steps ii, iii and iv below) and a verification report along with any necessary long term monitoring (steps v and vi) have been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority; and that during demolition and the construction phases, the development proceeds in accordance with the on-site measures to be deployed and recommendations set out within chapter 9 of the geo-environmental analysis and final report (ref 6271t2676) produced by the Earth Science Partnership (which forms part of the Environmental Statement) dated January 2017.

 

Step (ii)  Submission of Remediation Scheme:

If any unacceptable risks are identified as a result of the investigation and assessment referred to in step (i) above, a detailed remediation scheme to bring the site to a condition suitable for the intended use must be prepared. This should detail the works required to remove any unacceptable risks to human health, buildings and other property and the natural and historical environment, should be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.  The scheme must include all works to be undertaken, proposed remediation objectives and remediation criteria, a timetable of works and site management procedures.

 

Step (iii)  Implementation of Approved Remediation Scheme:

The approved remediation scheme under step (ii) must be carried out in accordance with its requirements. The Local Planning Authority must be given at least two weeks written notification of commencement of the remediation scheme works.

 

Step (iv)   Reporting of Unexpected Contamination:

In the event that contamination is found at any time when carrying out the approved development that was not previously identified it should be reported in writing immediately to the Local Planning Authority. An investigation and risk assessment should be undertaken in accordance with the requirements of step (i) above and where remediation is necessary, a remediation scheme should be prepared in accordance with the requirements of step (ii) and submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.

 

Step (v)    Verification of remedial works:

Following completion of measures identified in the approved remediation scheme a verification report (referred to in the former PPS23 as a validation report) must be produced. The report should demonstrate the effectiveness of the remedial works.

 

A statement should also be provided by the developer which is signed by a person who is competent to confirm that the works detailed in the approved scheme have been carried out. The Local Planning Authority can provide a draft Remediation Certificate when the details of the remediation scheme have been approved at stage (ii) above.

 

The verification report and signed statement should be submitted to and approved in writing of the Local Planning Authority.

 

Step (vi)     Long Term Monitoring and Maintenance:

If a monitoring and maintenance scheme is required as part of the approved remediation scheme, reports must be prepared and submitted to the Local Planning Authority for approval at the relevant stages in the development process as approved by the Local Planning Authority in the scheme approved pursuant to step (ii) above, until all the remediation objectives in that scheme have been achieved.

 

All works must be conducted in accordance with DEFRA and the Environment Agency’s “Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination, CLR 11” and other authoritative guidance.

 

REASON: To ensure that the development does not pose unacceptable pollution risks to controlled waters or future users of the land and residents, and to ensure that the development can be carried out safely without unacceptable risks to workers, neighbours and other offsite receptors.  The previous site use as a working farm may have caused contamination of soils/subsoils/groundwater, which should be fully assessed.  In addition the site is within a Source Protection Zone 3.

 

13.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until details of all internal roads, verges, junctions, street lighting, sewers, drains, any retaining walls, service routes, surface water outfalls, vehicle overhang margins, any embankments, visibility splays, accesses, carriageway gradients, drive gradients, car parking and street furniture, footpaths and associated works; and, details of street lighting, fire-fighting apparatus and fire hydrants, have been submitted to and approved by the local planning authority.  Thereafter, the roads, paths and associated works shall be provided in accordance with the approved details.

 

REASON: To ensure that the highway infrastructure is of an acceptable standard.

 

14.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until a phasing plan for the delivery of the roads and paths on the site has been submitted to and approved by the local planning authority. The phasing plan shall include details of when the internal footpath and cycle track infrastructure and connection made to WARM6 shall be completed and when the site distributor road shall be completed to connect with the distributor road on the adjacent Redrow Homes site.

 

REASON: In order to ensure that local sustainable transport infrastructure is delivered to an acceptable timescale, and to aid the implementation of Travel Plan initiatives.

 

15.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until a foul water drainage strategy has been submitted and approved in writing by the local planning authority to secure the following:

 

•     A detailed drainage scheme which refers to a phased construction programme and includes appropriate arrangements for the agreed points of connections, discharge rates and the capacity improvements required to serve the proposed development phasing; and following the approval of the strategy; and,

•       The drainage scheme shall be completed in accordance with the approved details and following a timetable to be agreed in writing with the local planning authority.

 

REASON: To ensure that the appropriate foul sewerage infrastructure is available to service the site and to ensure that the development does not increase the risk of sewer flooding to downstream properties.

 

NOTE: The above condition will require multipartite liaison with the local lead flood authority, the environment agency and Wessex Water.

 

16.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until a scheme for the discharge of surface water from the site to include the provisions and measures to prevent pollution of receiving groundwater and/or surface waters, a timetable for its implementation; and a construction management and maintenance plan for the lifetime of the development incorporating sustainable drainage details, has been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Thereafter, the phased development shall not be first brought into use until the surface water drainage provisions have been completed and connections are made available in accordance with the drainage scheme.

 

REASON: This matter is required to be agreed with the Local Planning Authority before development commences to ensure that the development is undertaken in an acceptable manner and to ensure that the development does not increase the risk of flooding.

 

NOTE: The formation of a Management Company is a s106 obligation to legally bind the permission.  It should also be appreciated that discharging the above requirement will require multipartite liaison with the local lead flood authority, the environment agency and Wessex Water.

 

17.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until a landscape delivery schedule for all the proposed tree and shrub landscape planting including the infilling of the existing hedgerow boundary have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The schedule shall also identify the timescale provision of advanced strategic tree planting in communal areas and confirming the tree stock specification for the western and northern parts of the site in advance of the first phase of development; and, for the remainder of the scheme, the landscape planting (pursuant to each phase) shall be carried out in the first planting and seeding season following the first occupation of the related building(s).  Any trees or plants which die, are removed, or become seriously damaged or diseased, shall be replaced in the next planting season with others of a similar size and species. The landscaping and hedgerow enhancement planting shall be implemented in full accordance with the agreed delivery timeframe and the location planting details as set out in the Schedule of Plans approved by condition 2.

 

REASON: This information is required to ensure that the phased development and proposed landscaping is undertaken in an acceptable manner.

 

18.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall commence beyond slab level until a lighting strategy for the site has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority. The strategy shall:

 

·              Show how and where external lighting would be installed (through the provision of appropriate lighting contour plans and technical specifications, including a Lux plot) so that it can be clearly demonstrated that areas to be lit would not result in light spill onto the nearby hedgerows or detrimentally affect the AONBs dark sky status;

 

·         Specify luminaires, heights and positions of fittings, direction and other features e.g. cowls, louvres or baffles; and illumination levels in accordance with the appropriate Environmental Zone standards as set out by the Institute of Lighting Professionals in their publication GN01:2011, ‘Guidance for the Reduction of Obtrusive Light’ (ILP, 2011); and that,

·         All external lighting shall be installed in accordance with the specifications and locations set out in the strategy, and these shall be maintained thereafter in accordance with the strategy. Under no circumstances should any other external lighting be installed without prior consent from the local planning authority.

 

REASON: To minimise light spillage and pollution into hedgerows and trees, and to ensure that there is no illumination of the bat roost and to maintain dark foraging and commuting corridors for bats, particularly along the northern boundary hedgerow; and to safeguard the AONB dark skies character and status.

 

19.         The residential development hereby approved shall be designed to ensure it does not exceed 110 litres per person per day water consumption levels (which includes external water usage).  Within 3 months of each phase being completed and the housing brought into use, a post construction stage certificate certifying that this standard has been achieved shall be submitted to the local planning authority for its written approval.

 

REASON: To ensure that the development delivers betterment in terms of the level of discharge of phosphates from the sewage treatment plant into the River Avon SAC.

 

20.         The roads, including footpaths and turning spaces pursuant to each phase of development shall be constructed so as to ensure that, before each dwelling is occupied it has been provided with a properly consolidated and surfaced footpath and carriageway to at least base course level between the dwelling and existing highway.

 

REASON: To ensure that the development is served by an adequate means of access.

 

21.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall be occupied until the necessary foul drainage infrastructure and capacity improvements have been completed in accordance with an agreed drainage strategy.

 

REASON: To ensure that the appropriate foul sewerage infrastructure is available to service the site.

 

22.         No dwelling hereby approved shall be occupied until a Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP) has been submitted to, and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The content of the LEMP shall include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following information:

 

a)            Details of the body (e.g. Management Company) responsible for implementing the LEMP

b)           Obligations and liabilities of the management company

c)            Identification of all communal ecological and landscape features to be managed on a scaled plan

d)           Aims of management for each feature

e)            Management prescriptions for each feature including timescales, equipment and manpower requirements

f)             5 year work schedule capable of being rolled forward

g)           Outline management costs

h)           Mechanism for reviewing the plan

 

The LEMP shall also include details of the legal and funding mechanism(s) by which long-term implementation of the plan will be secured by the developer with the management body responsible for delivery.

 

The LEMP shall be implemented in full in accordance with the approved details.

 

REASON: To ensure the long-term management of protected and priority habitats and other landscape and ecological features, and to maintain and enhance these habitats and features in perpetuity.

 

NOTE:  The LEMP should be written for the members of the Management Company who will include householders many of whom will have no knowledge or interest in landscape and ecology issues. It must explain the company’s obligations and liabilities, identifying specific features and explaining how they need to be retained, protected and managed. It is best if it is a short document with a map showing the relevant features and a work programme. Baseline surveys from the application should not be repeated as these detract from the main purpose of the report and make the document too cumbersome and detailed for its readership.

 

23.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall be occupied until the parking space(s) together with the access thereto, have been provided in accordance with the approved plans.

 

REASON: In the interests of highway safety and the amenity of future occupants

 

24.         No dwelling hereby approved shall be occupied until the visibility splays shown on the approved plans have been provided with no obstructions to hinder visibility at or above a height of 500mm above the nearside carriageway level. Thereafter, the visibility splays within the scheme shall be maintained free of obstruction at all times thereafter.

 

REASON: In the interests of highway safety.

 

25.         No dwelling hereby approved (pursuant to each phase) shall be occupied until the enclosures, refuse storage and cycle parking respective to that dwelling has been provided in accordance with the approved plans.

 

REASON:  In the interests of visual amenity and the character and appearance of the area.

 

26.         That for the avoidance of any doubt, there shall be no vehicular access permitted to the site other than via the Victoria Road junction, unless and until the road connecting to the adjacent Redrow site has been completed and certified in writing by the local planning authority to be acceptable for use. Existing points of vehicular access to the site shall be closed prior to the commencement of the residential development (with the exception of the highway access works themselves) and their use prevented by means of an enclosure, the details of which shall require the written agreement by the local planning authority.

 

REASON: To ensure that access to and egress from the site is achieved in a safe manner.

 

NOTE: Construction traffic will only be permitted to access the site via Victoria Road.

 

27.         The development hereby approved shall be completed in accordance with the submitted waste audit and management strategy.

 

REASON: In order to minimise waste production and the safe handling of any hazardous materials as well as ensuring that any waste is handled and transported in full accordance with the duty of care in full compliance with environmental requirements.

 

PlanningInformatives

 

Planning Informatives

1. The applicant is required to contact Wessex Water and agree any diversion of the existing water main that runs through the site. The existing water main and associated 6m easement must be maintained following any agreed diversion with Wessex Water.  Water Supply network modelling would be required to determine if any off site reinforcement is required to accommodate extra demand on supply generated by the development.  Buildings above two storeys would however require on-site boosted storage.

2. The applicant is advised that any works or alterations made to the existing watercourses or connections to them require separate land drainage consent form the appropriate drainage authority.  In this case, the environment agency and lead local flood authority would be the appropriate bodies.

3.  The development should include water efficient systems and fittings. This could include dual-flush toilets, water butts, water-saving taps, showers and baths, and appliances with the highest water efficiency rating. Greywater recycling and rainwater harvesting could also be considered.  

4.  An appropriate submitted scheme to discharge the condition 19 would include a water usage calculator showing how the development would not exceed a total (internal and external) usage level of 110 litres per person per day (lower figure given within Building Regulations Part G).  The site is within the catchment of the Hampshire Avon River (SAC/SSSI) catchment which is already over-abstracted.  Water efficiency measures can help to relieve abstraction pressures.

5. The applicant is advised that the local authority will require an indemnity in order to operate on any road within the scheme that serve any houses that are not formally adopted, even on a temporary basis whilst the development is being completed. The applicant should refer to Appendix C of the Council's Waste Management guidance which includes a sample indemnity agreement.

6. The Wiltshire Fire & Rescue Service recommends the provision of the following as part of satisfying Building Regulations and reducing the risk of death, injury and property damage:

Sprinklers work from a standard main, although a 32mm connection is required.  They are inexpensive to install, particularly in a new building.  They do not activate by accident causing unwanted damage.  They only operate through individually activated heads, not the whole system.  They can be designed to fit flush to the ceiling behind a flat cover.  They cause less water damage in a fire than normal fire-fighting operations.  They significantly reduce fire and smoke damage.

7. The applicant is furthermore encouraged to enter into a CoPA (Control of Pollution Act) s61 agreement with the Council to secure details on the construction phases, the construction compound locations, the hours of work, the delivery routes, the proposed plant and equipment to be used, identifying noise/vibration generators once the specific construction programme and plant type are known as well as identifying the measures to be adopted to minimise noise/vibration impacts (with community liaison, control measures and compliance monitoring schemes).

8. The applicant is encouraged to make contact with the Council's local highway authority pursuant to the necessary s278 agreement.

9. To avoid disturbing nesting birds and breeding season, no works should take place to the site boundaries between March to July inclusive. All British birds (while nesting, building nests and sitting on eggs), their nests and eggs (with certain limited exceptions) are protected by law under Section 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) and the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. If birds are nesting on/in or within the vicinity of the proposed development, work should be undertaken outside the breeding season for birds to ensure their protection, i.e. works should only be undertaken between August and February. Further advice on the above can be sought from the Council Ecologists.

10. The applicant is encouraged to provide at least one swift brick within at least 25% of the new houses and buildings with an attic space to encourage nesting swifts and to provide bat boxes throughout the scheme.  The applicant is furthermore encouraged to ensure that when securing the improvements to the site boundaries, special regard is given to creating room for hedgehogs to pass through hedgerows to connect with other habitats.

11. The applicant is advised that the development hereby approved may represent chargeable development under the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 (as amended) and Wiltshire Council's CIL Charging Schedule. If the development is determined to be liable for CIL, a Liability Notice will be issued notifying you of the amount of CIL payment due. If an Additional Information Form has not already been submitted, please submit it now so that we can determine the CIL liability. In addition, you may be able to claim exemption or relief, in which case, please submit the relevant form so that we can determine your eligibility. The CIL Commencement Notice and Assumption of Liability must be submitted to Wiltshire Council prior to commencement of development.  Should development commence prior to the CIL Liability Notice being issued by the local planning authority, any CIL exemption or relief will not apply and full payment will be required in full and with immediate effect. Should you require further information or to download the CIL forms please refer to the Council's Website:
