If you are unhappy about any of the conditions on your planning permission you can appeal to the Planning Inspectorate. This must be lodged within 6 months of the date of the decision (or 12 weeks for a householder application).
PermalinkThere is a standard charge of £34 for approval of planning conditions attached to planning permission for householder applications and £116 for all other developments, per request. Therefore if you apply for approval of all your conditions at once, you will only be charged one fee. However, if you send in details for each condition separately, these will be counted as separate ‘requests’ and you will have to pay further fees.
No fee will be payable where it relates to a Listed Building Consent.
Where exchange of information / correspondence is on-going a further fee will not be required. However, once the council has made a decision on your application a revised request will attract a fee.
You will be charged again if you want to revise approved details. There is no ‘free go’
PermalinkRequests for written confirmation of approved conditions should be made in writing to the Planning Applications Team. The fee for this enquiry is £48.40 (inclusive of VAT)
PermalinkIf you begin works on site without getting approval for details that are required before development begins, this may mean that you will not be able to lawfully implement your planning permission.
This could leave you at risk of enforcement action and sanctions in the case of listed buildings.
