Informatives:

1)

May require Planning Permission
This permission does not include any external plant or equipment. Any external plant or plant with external vents may require planning permission, and you are advised to consult the Directorate of Planning Services. The Council has powers of enforcement under the Town and Country Planning Act, 1990, in relation to development carried out without planning permission.

2)

Enforcement of Conditions (PP)
Your attention is drawn to the Conditions of this Permission and to the Council's powers of enforcement, including the power to serve a Breach of Condition Notice under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, as amended. All Conditions must be complied with. If you wish to seek to amend a Condition you should apply to do so under s.73 of the Act, explaining why you consider it is no longer necessary, or possible, to comply with a particular condition.

3)

Variations to Approved Drawings
Planning permission is hereby granted for the development as shown on the approved drawings. Any variation to the approved scheme may require further permission, and unauthorised variations may lay you open to planning enforcement action. You are advised to seek advice from the Directorate of Planning and Place, before work commences, if you are thinking of introducing any variations to the approved development. Advice should urgently be sought if a problem occurs during approved works, but it is clearly preferable to seek advice at as early a stage as possible.

Unique text
Informative The main set of contaminated land conditions are attached to this decision notice as contamination of soil or water is judged to have the potential to harm people, property, or the wider environment or to pollute waters. Reference must be made to any CLC1 guidance produced by the Pollution Regulatory Team (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/environment/land-contamination/land-contamination). Local information which should be obtained includes a search of the Pollution Regulatory Team's records (email [email protected]), freely available recent and historical planning information (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/planning/searches/default.aspx) and potentially information available at the local studies library at Kensington Library (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/libraries/local-studies-and-archives). We strongly recommend that a competent and appropriately qualified environmental professional undertakes or oversees the work to discharge the conditions. The responsibility to properly address contaminated land issues, including safe development and secure occupancy, and irrespective of any involvement by the Council lies with the owner/developer of the site.
