Discharge of Planning Conditions
Whilst many conditions simply require adherence to plans or reports submitted with the application, others require the submission of further details and this requires a further formal application. Conditions can be discharged individually, in groups, or in their entirety as part of a single application.
Occasionally, and with the agreement of the applicant, local planning authorities will impose conditions that have to be discharged before any work commences on site. Failure to comply with these conditions can render any work unlawful and result in enforcement action being taken by the local planning authority.
Our RTPI accredited planning team can prepare and submit applications to discharge conditions, with assistance from our RIBA and CIAT accredited architectural team and/or our Chartered Landscape Architects when required. We can also provide advice on any issues that may arise regarding pre-commencement conditions.
