Decision
Planning Permission on 15th October 2004
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That the development must be begun not later than the expiration of five years beginning with the date of this permission and if this condition is not complied with this permission shall lapse. Reason: By virtue of Sections 91 to 95 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

That samples of the materials to be used for the external walls and roofs shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority before any development commences. Reason: To ensure that the details of the development are satisfactory in accordance with Policy G8 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That the cafe selling hot food for consumption on the premises shall be used and open to the public only between the hours of 8.00 am and 10.30 pm on any day and at no other time whatsoever. Reason: To protect local amenities in accordance with Policies G1 and G7 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That the parking provision shall be as shown on the deposited drawing, reference 123/P/02 all constructed, surfaced and laid out, retained and maintained. Reason: To comply with the Local Planning Authority's vehicle parking standards and to protect local amenities in accordance with Policy G11 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That existing ground levels on the site shall not be raised. Reason: To prevent the increased risk of flooding due to impedance of flood flows and reduction of flood storage capacity in accordance with Policy G16 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That no spoil or materials shall be deposited or stored on that part of the site lying within the area of land liable to flood as shown on maps held by the Environment Agency. Reason: To prevent the increased risk of flooding due to impedance of flood flows and reduction of flood storage capacity in accordance with Poicy G16 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That any walls or fencing constructed within or around the site shall be designed to be permeable to flood water. Reason: To prevent obstruction to the flow and storage of flood water with a consequent increased risk of flooding and in accordance with Policy G16 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That openings and any associated grilles to the under floor voids shall be constructed in accordance with details to be submitted to and approved by the Local Planning Authority before development commences. Reason: To ensure that free passage of flood water through the under floor voids of the buildings is provided for and in accordance with Policy G16 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.

That no development shall take place until the Local Planning Authority are satisfied that contamination has been sufficiently investigated and any remedial action approved. The site shall then not be occupied until any agreed action is implemented and approved by the Local Planning Authority. i) The following measures (a-d) shall be undertaken to investigate and remediate any contamination on the site prior to commencement of the development. (a) A desk study shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This study shall be conducted fully in line with the approach indicated in BS 10175:2011 (Investigation of potentially contaminated sites - code of practice). The study shall include the identification of all previous site uses, potential contaminants that might reasonably be expected given those uses and other relevant information. If contamination is suspected at the site the information obtained must then be used to formulate an initial conceptual model for the site including all potential contaminant sources, pathways and receptors. (b) Where contamination is identified as having the potential to be present in a) above, proposals for a site investigation to characterise the site must be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. This proposal shall be designed having regard to the approved desk study and BS 10175. It should be clear about what information it seeks to obtain and how this will refine the initial conceptual model for the site. c) The approved site investigation referred to on (b) above shall be fully implemented and a report submitted to the Local Planning Authority for written approval. The report shall be in line with BS 10175 and detail the works undertaken to characterise the site and contain a refined conceptual model in the light of the results of the investigation. N.B. If the Local Planning Authority is not satisfied that the site has been adequately characterised after the first stage of investigation, further works will be required to clarify any remaining uncertainties. d) Where unacceptable levels of contamination are identified, a remediation scheme shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The scheme shall incorporate details of the procedures and documentation employed to validate the remediation measures identified in c) above. ii) prior to occupation of the site, the approved remediation and validation scheme in (d) above shall be fully implemented and a report submitted and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Reason: To ensure that any ground water contamination is identified and adequately addressed to ensure the safety of the development, the environment and the public and to ensure that the site is suitable for the proposed use and in accordance with Policy H11 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan.
