richie9648 Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Hi I have a planning approval on a 3m extension on a semi - but have decided to go out 3.5m - dont ask why - case of me not being here and a discussion between Mrs and builder Neighbours are fine with it and didnt bat an eyelid. Would I put a retrospective application in or just carry on - I assume given it would be deemed under PA and the neighbours are fine with it, the risk of being asked to scale it back are pretty minor? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olf Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 What sort of 'planning approval' did you ask for for 3m extension? Anyway, 3.5m is still within permitted development rules, just in the 'larger extensions' section that requires neighbours consultation (https://www.planningportal.co.uk/info/200130/common_projects/17/extensions/2). You mentioned they're ok with that, so it should not be an issue. For such planning permission no site visit is necessary so you can probably carry on with your works, though that is of course element of risk, so you need to judge the delay vs any consequences of being caught.

We did a PA on the 3m - we have got the free go plan in and i am hoping the BC dont notice it either when he is up next week to look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonner Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 BC won’t be remotely interested in the size, that’s a planning issue which is nothing to do with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So have you now resubmitted a PA application for the 3.5m deep extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I’m not sure why!!! yes we have put in a freebie amendment on the 3.5m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
