Withdrawn 18.04.13 _________________________________________________________________________ (D) CONSULTATIONS: Area Roads Manager (e-mail dated 22.10.13 and response dated 25.10.13) – No objections subject to conditions. The Roads Manager recommends that the development be subject to planning conditions to ensure acceptable tie-in with planned adjacent development. The present access is considered as a temporary arrangement which shall be reconstructed such that it ties in to the approved estate service road. The tie in should be compatible in both line and level with the approved road. All work to the final access arrangement will be contained within the designated plot 3. Should there be a need to revert to retaining structures adjacent to the access to plots 1 & 2, then the retaining structure will be constructed to an approved design, certified Page 3 by a qualified engineer. The design will not compromise in any way the access to plots 1 & 2. Provision will be made for the parking of three cars entirely within the curtilage of plot 3 that will not in any way encroach on the proposed public Road and its footways or verges. The area will have a sealed surface acceptable to the Argyll & Bute Council Roads Department. All of the above works will be completed satisfactorily prior to the laying of the final surface courses of the footways and Road carriageway. Arrangements must be put in place to alter the access as works progress in the construction of the proposed road such that access is maintained at all times. All drainage pipes and connections will have satisfactory cover and will be laid in accordance with industry standards. Disconnection manholes will be within the plot boundaries. All main line manholes will be constructed close to the centreline of the proposed Road. No surface water will be permitted to discharge from the access or parking area onto the proposed Road. Access from the Proposed Road will be via dropped kerb footway or verge crossing generally complying with the Council’s Standard Detail SD 08/005A . Scottish Water – No response. Environmental Health – No response SEPA (response dated 17.09.13) - No objections providing development is served by public drainage system. Building Standards (response dated 26.09.13) - The Building Standards Team was asked to comment upon the objections that focus on possible requirement for retaining walls between Plots 2, 3 and 4. The Area Team Leader advises that the application property has a habitation certificate and complies with the Building Regulations but states that any requirement for retaining walls will depend upon detailed design considerations, the local characteristics of the rock and the design engineer’s recommendations. As he is not an engineer this is a matter for the developer and site designers to consider and he has declined to offer an opinion at this point. ___________________________________________________________________________ (E) PUBLICITY: Regulation 20(1) advertisement was placed in the Helensburgh Advertiser on 19.09.13.
