The Highway Authority advise:

Reference in any condition contained in this permissionto any Statute, Statutory Instrument, Order, Regulation, Design Guide or other document shall be taken to include any amendment, replacement consolidation or variation that shall from time to time be in force and any reference to any body or organisation (public or private) shall be taken to include any successor-body or organisation exercising relevant functions in place of or alongside the body named.

The applicant should note that notwithstanding any planning permission that ifany highway forming part of the development is to be adopted by the Highways Authority, the new roads and any highway drainage will be required to comply with the Nottinghamshire County Council’s current highway design guidance and specification for roadworks for which there is a fee.

a)             The Advanced Payments Code in the Highways Act 1980 applies and under section 219 of the Act payment will be required from the owner of the land fronting a private street on which a new building is to be erected. The developer should contact the Highway Authority with regard to compliance with the Code, or alternatively to the issue of a Section 38 Agreement and bond under the Highways Act 1980. A Section 38 Agreement can take some time to complete. Therefore, it is recommended that the developer contact the Highway Authority as early as possible.

b)             It is strongly recommended that the developer contact the Highway Authority at an early stage to clarify the codes etc. With which compliance will be required in the particular circumstance, and it is essential that design calculations and detailed construction drawings for the proposed works are submitted to and approved by the County Council (or District Council) in writing before any work commences on site. Correspondence with the Highway Authority should be addressed to:

Hdc.south@nottscc.gov.uk

In order to carry out the off-site works required you will be undertaking work inthe public highway which is land subject to the provisions of the Highways Act 1980 (as amended) and therefore land over which you have no control. In order to undertake the works, you will need to enter into an agreement under Section 278 of the Act for which there is a fee. Please contact: hdc.south@nottscc.gov.uk

The deposit of mud or other items on the public highway, and/or the discharge of water onto the public highway are offences under Sections 149 and 151, Highways Act 1980.  The applicant, any contractors, and the owner / occupier of the land must therefore ensure that nothing is deposited on the highway, nor that any soil or refuse etc is washed onto the highway, from the site.  Failure to prevent this may force the Highway Authority to take both practical and legal action (which may include prosecution) against the applicant / contractors / the owner or occupier of the land.  [Where the development site may be accessed by a significant number of vehicles or may be particularly susceptible to material ‘tracking’ off site onto the highway, details of wheel-washing facilities must be provided to and approved by the Highway Authority.]

The proposed access/off-site highway works referred to in condition 7 requires a Traffic Regulation Order before the development commences to provide safe access/off-site mitigating works. The developer should note that the Order can be made on behalf of the developer by Via East Midlands in partnership with Nottinghamshire County Council at the expense of the developer. This is a separate legal process and the Applicant should contact the Improvements Team on 0300 500 8080 for details.

Notes to Applicant

1

The Council has acted positively and proactively in the determination of this application by working to determine it within

the agreed determination timescale.

2

This permission has been granted contemporaneously with an Agreement under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning

Act 1990, and reference should be made thereto.

3

The submitted plans are for indicative purposes only and this decision does not approve the layout, form or design of any of the dwellings, landscaping or any other matters.

4

The developer will need to purchase first time bins. Notice will be served in due course. Properties will be allocated the following:

1x 240l bin for residual waste

1x 240l bin for dry recycling

1x 37l bag for glass recycling.

5

The applicant should note that notwithstanding any planning permission that ifany highway forming part of the development is to be adopted by the Highways Authority. The new roads and any highway drainage will be required to comply with the Nottinghamshire County Council’s current highway design guidance and specification for roadworks.

a)             The Advanced Payments Code in the Highways Act 1980 applies and under section 219 of the Act payment will be required from the owner of the land fronting a private street on which a new building is to be erected. The developer should contact the Highway Authority with regard to compliance with the Code, or alternatively to the issue of a Section 38 Agreement and bond under the Highways Act 1980. A Section 38 Agreement can take some time to complete. Therefore, it is recommended that the developer contact the Highway Authority as early as possible.

b)             It is strongly recommended that the developer contact the Highway Authority at an early stage to clarify the codes etc. with which compliance will be required in the particular circumstance, and it is essential that design calculations and detailed construction drawings for the proposed works are submitted to and approved by the County Council (or District Council) in writing before any work commences on site.

6

The deposit of mud or other items on the public highway, and/or the discharge of water onto the public highway are offences under Sections 149 and 151 of the Highways Act 1980.  The applicant, any contractors, and the owner / occupier of the land must therefore ensure that nothing is deposited on the highway, nor that any soil or refuse etc is washed onto the highway, from the site.  Failure to prevent this may force the Highway Authority to take both practical and legal action (which may include prosecution) against the applicant / contractors / the owner or occupier of the land. 

7

Burning of commercial waste is a prosecutable offence. It also causes unnecessary nuisance to those in the locality. All waste should be removed by an appropriately licensed carrier.

8

Many buildings still contain asbestos. In order to comply with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, an assessment is required to determine whether the building has asbestos containing materials (ACMs). This must be carried out before any structural work on a building occurs. For properties or parts of properties that need upgrading, refurbishing or demolition, a ‘Refurbishment/Demolition Survey is required. Copies of reports relating to asbestos identification and management should be sent to the Council’s Environmental Health Team at health@broxtowe.gov.uk

9

You will need to contact the Council’s Environmental Health Team on 01159173714 to notify them of the arrival on site of any Mobile Crushing plant for them to carry out an inspection of the crushing equipment in line with the operational permit issued under the Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999 Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 (as amended)

10

Vegetation clearance should be avoided during the bird breeding

season of March-August inclusive.

11

Under the Coal Industry Act 1994 any intrusive activities, including initial site investigation boreholes, and/or any subsequent treatment of coal mine workings/coal mine entries for ground stability purposes require the prior written permission of The Coal Authority, since such activities can have serious public health and safety implications.  Failure to obtain permission will result in trespass, with the potential for court action.  It is recommended that you check with us prior to commencing any works.  Application forms for Coal Authority permission and further guidance can be obtained from The Coal Authority’s website at:
