24/10109/AIR Reason: in the interest of protecting highway drainage.

2.0 Proposal

2.1 The applicant submitted an application along with an email advising they had spoken with the DoI Highway inspector who advised that drainage wouldn't be needed. Discussions with the Highway inspector confirmed that the finished driveway will sit below the pavement so drainage will not be needed.

3.0 Consultation

3.1 Highway Drainage was consulted for advice on the satisfaction of condition. The advice received on 18.10.2024, after their review of the submitted documents, concludes that they are pleased with the Highway Inspectors assessment.

4.0 Recommendation

4.1 In the instance of the submitted applicant as well as the email from the applicant as well as the inspector and after consultation with the Highway Drainage, who are happy with the level of detail, it is deemed sufficient and would be considered satisfactory for planning condition 2 of application 24/00620/B.
