The development hereby permitted shall be carried out in accordance with the approved plans listed in schedule A. Reason: For the avoidance of doubt and in the interests of proper planning.

Prior to demolition works, the Local Planning Authority will be provided with either:  a copy of the licence issued by Natural England pursuant to Regulation 55 of The Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 authorising the development to go ahead; or  a copy of a letter from Natural England confirming that the works fall within the remit of a Bat Mitigation Class Licence (WML-CL21) and that the site has been registered in accordance with the class licence; or a statement in writing from the licensed bat ecologist to the effect that he/she does not consider that the specified development will require a licence.  In the event that the current licence application (ref 2023-64326-EPS-MIT) is not approved, updated bat surveys will be required to establish if there have been any changes in the presence and/or abundance of roosting bats, identify any likely new ecological impacts that might arise from any changes, and underpin a revised licence application. The findings of any update bat surveys shall be provided to the Local Planning Authority as a letter or addendum to the existing bat survey report (Quantock Ecology (2021): Bat Survey – Emergence and Activity Surveys). Reason: A condition in the interest of the strict protection of European protected species and in accordance with Policy D20 of the Sedgemoor Local Plan 2011 – 2032.

Prior to the installation of any external lighting, a lighting design for bats, following Guidance Note 08/18 Bats and artificial lighting in the UK (ILP and BCT 2018), shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The design shall show how and where external lighting will be installed (including through the provision of technical specifications) so that it can be clearly demonstrated that areas to be lit will not disturb or prevent bats using their territory. The design should accord with Step 5 of Guidance Note 08/18. All external lighting shall be installed in accordance with the specifications and locations set out in the design, and these shall be maintained thereafter in accordance with the design. Under no circumstances should any other external lighting be installed without prior consent from the Local Planning Authority. Reason: In the interests of the 'Favourable Conservation Status' of populations of European protected species and in accordance with Sedgemoor District Council Local Plan: Policy D20 - Biodiversity and Geodiversity.

Prior to occupation of the development hereby approved, the following shall be installed: 4x standard bird boxes, purchased or built, to be installed on to a building or mature tree on site, facing east or north, at a height above 3m; 1x Schwegler 1FF or 2FN (or similar woodstone) bat box to be installed on to a building or mature tree on site, facing south, at a height between 3-5m. This is supplementary to the mitigation required in accordance with the Natural England mitigation licence for bats; Plant species of known value to wildlife within any new landscape works; 1x permanent reptile hibernacula near the eastern boundary of the site; and 1x wildlife pond. Once implemented such measures shall be retained at all times thereafter. Reason: In accordance with Government policy for the enhancement of biodiversity within development as set out in paragraph 174(d) of the National Planning Policy Framework and to safeguard and promote biodiversity in accordance with policy D20 of the Sedgemoor Local Plan 2011-2032.

Prior to the first use of the development hereby approved flood resilience measures will be carried out in accordance with the measures set out in the submitted Flood Risk Assessment and will be maintained thereafter in perpetuity. Reason: In accordance with policy D1 of the Sedgemoor Local Plan 2011-2032.
