Planning permission did not absolve the applicant from complying with the relevant law; including obtaining and complying with the terms and conditions of any licences the developer may need to obtain from Natural England prior to commencement of development. The Environment Agency recommended that developers should: Follow the risk management framework provided in CLR11, Model Procedures for the Management of Land Contamination, when dealing with land affected by contamination. Refer to the Environment Agency Guidance on Requirements for Land Contamination Reports for the type of information that we require in order to assess risks to controlled waters from the site. The Local Authority can advise on risk to other receptors, e.g. human health. Refer to our website at www.environment-agency.gov.uk for more information. It is recommended that the requirements of PPS23 should also be followed. The principles outlined in the flood risk assessment ref 07164/FRA dated June 2007 are generally acceptable, but because of the high risk of flooding elsewhere in the catchment surface water run-off should be attenuated to the 1:1 year greenfield rate. Also, the existing greenfield discharge route should be confirmed.

RESOLVED that planning application 08/2129/FUL be Refused for the following reasons; 01.

In addition, it is considered that the contrasting design would further unbalance and detrimentally affect the character of the street scene and conservation area as a result of its dominance created throughout the unacceptable scale and massing of the building. 02. In the opinion of the Local Planning Authority without adequate demonstration that the scheme can operate without any parking provision, and in view of the scale and nature of the proposed provision, it was considered that the proposed development would unduly affect the free movement of traffic within the highway, being detrimental to highway safety, contrary to Policy GP1, S3 and S16 of the Stockton on Tees Local Plan and SPD.3 Parking provision for new developments.
