(3) In paragraph (2), “small apparatus” means— (a)a dish antenna, other than on a building, not exceeding 5 metres in diameter and 7 metres in height; (b)an antenna, other than a dish antenna and other than on a building, not exceeding 7 metres in height; (c)a hard standing or other base for any apparatus described in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b), not exceeding 7 metres in diameter; (d)a dish antenna on a building, not exceeding 1.3 metres in diameter and 3 metres in height; (e)an antenna, other than a dish antenna, on a building, not exceeding 3 metres in height; (f)equipment housing not exceeding 3 metres in height and of which the area, when measured at ground level, does not exceed 9 square metres. | |
Conditions | C.4 | (1) Class C(a) and Class C(c) development is permitted subject to the condition that any antenna or supporting apparatus, equipment housing or development ancillary to equipment housing constructed, installed, altered or replaced on a building in accordance with that permission shall, so far as is practicable, be sited so as to minimise its effect on the external appearance of the building. (2) Class C(a) development consisting of the installation of any additional apparatus in a conservation area, an area of outstanding natural beauty or a National Park is permitted subject to the condition that the apparatus shall be installed as close as reasonably practicable to any existing apparatus. (3) Class C(b) development is permitted subject to the condition that any apparatus or structure provided in accordance with that permission shall be removed from the land at the expiry of the relevant period and the land restored to its condition before the development took place. (4) Class C development— (a)in a conservation area, an area of outstanding natural beauty, a National Park, or Area of Special Scientific Interest; or (b)on any other land and consisting of the alteration or replacement of a mast; or the installation, alteration or replacement of an antenna on a building or structure (other than a mast) where the antenna (including any supporting structure) would exceed the height of the building or structure at the point where it is installed or to be installed by 4 metres or more; or of equipment housing with a volume in excess of 2.5 cubic metres; or of development ancillary to equipment housing, is permitted subject, except in an emergency, to the conditions set out in C.5. |
C.5 | (1) The developer shall, before commencing development, give notice of the proposed development to any person (other than the developer) who is an owner or occupier of the land to which the development relates— (a)by serving the appropriate notice to every such person whose name and address is known to him; (b)where he has taken reasonable steps to ascertain the names and addresses of every such person, but has been unable to do so, by local advertisement. | |
C.6 | (1) Class C(b) or Class C.3 development consisting of the installation of one or more antennas is permitted subject to the condition that the developer shall— (a)except in a case of emergency give appropriate notice in writing to the Department no fewer than twenty-eight days before development is begun of the developer’s intention to carry out such development; or (b)in a case of emergency give appropriate notice of such development as soon as possible after the emergency begins. (2) The notice referred to in sub-paragraphs 1(a) and (b) shall be accompanied by a declaration that the proposed equipment and installation is designed to be in full compliance with the requirements of the radio frequency public exposure guidelines of the International Commission on Non-ionising Radiation Protection, as expressed in EU Council recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields (1999/519/EC) (0 Hz to 300 GHz). | |
Interpretation of Class C | C.7 | For the purposes of Class C— “appropriate notice” means a notice signed and dated by or on behalf of the developer and containing— (a) the name of the developer; (b) the address or location of the proposed development; and (c) a description of the proposed development (including its siting and appearance and the height of any mast); “development ancillary to equipment housing” means the construction, installation, alteration or replacement of structures, equipment or other means of access which are ancillary to and reasonably required for the purposes of the equipment housing; “electronic communications apparatus” has the same meaning as in the electronic communications code; “electronic communications code” has the meaning assigned to it by section 106(1) of the Communications Act 2003(13); “local advertisement” means by publication of the notice in a newspaper circulating in the locality in which the land to which the proposed development is situated; “mast” means a structure erected by or on behalf of the developer for the support or housing of one or more antennae including a radio mast, radio tower, pole or other structure; “relevant day” means— (a) 10th June 2006; or (b) where existing apparatus is installed pursuant to planning permission granted on or after 10th June 2006, the date when that apparatus is finally installed pursuant to that permission, whichever is later; “relevant period” means a period which expires— (a) 6 months from the commencement of the construction, installation, alteration or replacement of any apparatus permitted by Class C(a) or Class C(c) or from the commencement of the use permitted by Class C(b), as the case may be; or (b) when the need for such apparatus, structure or use ceases, whichever occurs first.” |
