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.

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.
