The development to which this permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of three years beginning with the date of this permission.
Reason: By virtue of Sections 91 to 95 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004.
That the development hereby approved shall be carried out in accordance with the details shown on the following approved plans, 9207-101, 9207-105, 9207-104, 9207-100, 9207-102A, 9207-103A and L1a and L1, except as controlled or modified by conditions of this permission.
Reason: To secure the proper planning of the area in accordance with Development Plan policies.
Prior to the commencement of development, with the exception of any demolition, a full surface water drainage scheme following the surface water drainage hierarchy as set out in Ciria C753 and by providing infiltration testing undertaken in accordance with BRE 365, shall be submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. The design of the surface water drainage system will be in accordance with the non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems, including details of the levels, size, position and construction of drainage works. The drainage scheme shall be sized to accommodate a minimum of the worst case 1 in 30 year storm, with evidence to demonstrate that the site can accommodate the worst case 1:100 year storm + 40%Climate Change storm, without any flows exiting up to this storm event and any storage on site not causing a nuisance or flooding to property. The approved scheme shall be implemented in accordance with the approved details prior to the occupation of the development hereby approved.
Reason: To ensure the proper provision of surface water drainage and to ensure flooding is not exacerbated in the locality in accordance with Policies ENV12 and EP4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
Prior to the commencement of any site works (including demolition or site clearance) a protected area shall be designated for all existing trees which are shown to be retained, and the trees shall be protected in accordance with a scheme which complies with the current edition of BS 5837: "Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction" that shall first have been submitted to, and approved in writing by, the Local Planning Authority. The agreed measures shall be kept in place during the entire course of development.
Reason: To safeguard trees which are visually important in accordance with Policies ENV1, DES1, and DES2 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
Prior to the commencement of the development hereby approved a scheme for the landscaping of the site, including the planting of live trees and shrubs, shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. These details shall include schedules of new trees and shrubs to be planted (noting species, plant sizes and numbers/densities), the identification of the existing trees and shrubs on the site to be retained (noting species, location and spread), any earth moving operations and finished levels/contours, and an implementation programme. The scheme shall be implemented prior to the first occupation or use of the development hereby approved and thereafter be maintained in accordance with the approved scheme. In the event of any of the trees or shrubs so planted dying or being seriously damaged or destroyed within 5 years of the completion of the development, a new tree or shrub or equivalent number of trees or shrubs, as the case may be, of a species first approved by the Local Planning Authority, shall be planted and properly maintained in a position or positions first approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: To help to assimilate the development into its surroundings in accordance with Policies ENV1, DES1 and DES2 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
The exterior of the development hereby permitted shall only be constructed in the materials specified on the plans/supporting documents hereby approved or in materials which shall previously have been approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: In the interests of the visual appearance of the development in accordance with Policies DES1 and DES2 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
The hours of operation for the development shall be restricted to 08:00 - 17:30 Monday to Friday.
Reason: To ensure that the development is not unneighbourly in accordance with Policy DES6 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
The fence along the southern boundary of the proposed development shall be a minimum of 1.8m high, be close-boarded (overlaps of 25mm), of solid construction, with good quality timber (no holes, warping or damage) and be of 25mm thickness. The fence as approved shall be erected prior to the first occupation of any part of the development hereby approved and thereafter retained without alteration, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
Reason: To ensure that the development is not unneighbourly in accordance with Policies ENV12 and DE6 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
Upon completion of the development any external lighting shall be designed and installed so the main beam angle is not directed towards any receptors. To prevent glare, the lighting sources (bulbs and reflectors) shall not be visible from any adjacent properties. The luminaire's front glazing shall be kept parallel to the ground surface (i.e. facing downwards). This scheme shall also ensure that light trespass into the windows of any light sensitive premises shall not have a Vertical Illuminance greater than [2, 5, 10 or 25] Lux (in accordance with the Institution of Lighting Engineers Guidance Notes for the Reduction of Obtrusive Light GN01).
Reason: To protect the appearance of the area, the environment and wildlife, and local residents from light pollution in accordance with Policies ENV1, ENV2, ENV3 and ENV12 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035.
