To build a certain segment of building you need to take permission from the local council of the planning department. It is called planning permission. They may refuse or grant to build the part of the building as per your requirements. It is based upon certain conditions. And authorities are given by parliament to local planning authorities to take the call on building works. Thus for queries or conditions, you have to contact your local planning authorities prior to build any part or portion. One must seek planning permission to build any building before work begins though it is your call to seek permission or not based on knowledge and requirements.
Not all works require permission from the planning authority. There are certain works which could be done without the permission of local planning authorities. These are particularly known as “permitted development”.
This general planning permission is granted by parliament and not the local authority of planning permission. This does not apply to all the common projects, it may be applied to many of the buildings such as houses but is not avail for flats, apartments (maisonettes) or other such buildings. Permitted development rights are different for commercial properties than that of residential buildings. Permitted development rights are more restricted for certain areas of the country which are “designated area”. Like if you are living in:
Even for certain types of work which may not require planning permission in other parts of countries, may require if you are living any of the above areas. If your building is listed a property or building even then there are different requirements and set of conditions planning permission.
In order to begin any construction or building work, one must take prior permission from local planning authority in order to discuss the work in advance and take general advice from planning portals. Also, they will inform about why or why not the development is permitted. And you should apply for part or full building permission to planning authorities.
