Implementation of Planning Permissions

Purpose

This Action List comprises two parts. The first part explains the steps required to ensure the lawful implementation of a planning permission. The second part explains the steps which may be taken to remedy the situation where the commencement of development did not constitute a lawful implementation of the permission.

Benefits

Failing to commence a development within the permission’s timescale or to follow the precise conditions can be an expensive mistake. This invaluable action list provides a checkpoint of actions to take to avoid falling foul of these problems.

Audience

Urban and regional planners and all those involved in Development Control (both in local planning authorities and in the private sector), whether in urban or rural areas.

Learning method

An invaluable Action List which enables common and expensive slip-ups in implementing agreed planning to be avoided. Additionally a comprehensive range of further reading and web site links are provided for those who wish to become expert in the subject. Includes voluntary self assessment for recording continuous professional development (CPD).
