PLANNING NOTES 

1.	Under UK and European law it is illegal to disturb, kill or injure bats, or destroy their roosting places. All contractors working on the roof should be advised of the legal protection of bats. If bats or evidence of bats are found during the building works, all work in that area is to cease until a suitably qualified ecological consultant and Natural England has been consulted for advice on how to proceed.

2.	There are records of swifts nesting in the vicinity of this property. All nesting birds are protected under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (as amended). Should nesting birds be present on the building they and their nests cannot be disturbed until all young are fledged. Any nests removed or blocked as part of the proposed works should be replaced with a similar nesting opportunity - for example in the form of a nest box. Please contact the CDC Ecologist if further advice is needed.

NOTES TO THE APPLICANT

TIME LIMITS FOR APPLICATIONS 

By virtue of Sections 91-96 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as amended by Section 51 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, planning permissions are subject to time limits.  If a condition imposing a time limit has been expressly included as part of the permission, then that condition must be observed.  Otherwise, one or other of the following time limits will apply :

Where planning permission is given in outline subject to a condition reserving certain matters for subsequent approval, application for approval of such matters reserved must be made not later than the expiration of 3 years beginning with the date of the outline planning permission and further the development to which the permission relates must be begun not later than the expiration of 2 years from the final approval of the reserved matters or, in the case of approval on different dates, the final approval of the last reserved matters to be approved.

Where the planning permission is complete and is not in outline, the development must be begun not later than the expiration of 3 years from the date on which permission was granted.
OTHER NECESSARY CONSENTS
This document only conveys permission or approval for the proposed development under Part III of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and you must also comply with all the bye-laws, regulations and statutory provisions in force in the District and secure such other approvals and permissions as may be necessary under other parts of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 or other legislation.
In particular you are reminded of the following matters :
•	The need in appropriate cases to obtain approval under the Building Regulations. The Building Regulations may be applicable to this proposal.  You are therefore advised to contact the District Council’s Building Control Manager before starting work on site.
•	The need to obtain an appropriate Order if the proposal involves the stopping up or diversion of a public footpath.
•	Data supplied by the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) and the British Geological Survey (BGS) suggests that the site of this application falls within an area which is potentially at risk from radon. This may require protective measures in order to comply with the Building Regulations if your consent relates to a new dwelling or house extension. Further advice on whether protective measures are required under the Building Regulations can be obtained by contacting the Building Control Manager on 0300 003 0200, fax 0300 003 0201 or E-mail at building.control@cherwellandsouthnorthants.gov.uk
•	The need to obtain a separate “Listed Building Consent” for the demolition, alteration or extension of any listed building of architectural or historic interest from the Local Planning Authority.
•	The need to make any appropriate arrangements under the Highways Act in respect of any works within the limits of a public highway.  The address of the Highway Authority is Oxfordshire County Council, Speedwell House, Speedwell Street, Oxford, OX1 1NE.
•	It is the responsibility of the applicant to ascertain whether his/her development affects any public right of way, highway or listed building.
APPEALS TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE
If you are aggrieved by the decision of the Local Planning Authority to grant permission or approval subject to conditions, you can appeal to the First Secretary of State in accordance with Section 78(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
If you wish to appeal then you must do so within six months of the date of this notice.  Forms can be obtained from the Planning Inspectorate, Temple Quay House, 2 The Square, Temple Quay, Bristol, BS1 6PN. Tel (0117) 372 8000.  The Secretary of State can allow a longer period for giving notice of an appeal, but he will not normally be prepared to use this power unless there are special circumstances which excuse the delay in giving notice of appeal.
The Secretary of State need not consider an appeal if it seems to him that permission or approval for the proposed development could not have been so granted otherwise than subject to the conditions imposed by the Local Planning Authority, having regard to the statutory requirements, to the provisions of the development order and to any directions given under the order.
In practice, the Secretary of State does not refuse to consider appeals solely because the Local Planning Authority based its decision on a direction given by him.

PURCHASE NOTICES
If either the Local Planning Authority or the First Secretary of State grants permission or approval for the development of land subject to conditions, the owner may claim that he/she can neither put the land to a reasonably beneficial use in its existing state nor render the land capable of a reasonably beneficial use by the carrying out of any development which has been or would be permitted.
In these circumstances the owner may serve a purchase notice on the District Council.  This notice will require the Council to purchase his/her interest in the land in accordance with the provisions of Part VI of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.
COMPENSATION
In certain circumstances compensation may be claimed from the Local Planning Authority if permission is granted subject to conditions by the Secretary of State on appeal or on reference of the application to him.
These circumstances are set out in the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as amended by the Planning and Compensation Act 1991.
