Supply Chain Advice Pack: The PAS2035 stages – Stage four – Planning Permission
Introduction
Many retrofit measures do not require planning permission, but some local authorities have specific rules, especially for older buildings, conservation areas, or unique local building types. Failing to seek planning permission can result in legal action, fines, or even the removal of the new development.
To avoid this, consider planning permission early in your project. Identify any constraints and adjust your delivery plan to allow time for obtaining necessary permissions .You may need to adjust your retrofit proposals to comply with requirements. Planning permission should be considered after preliminary work, retrofit assessment, and pre-stage coordination, ensuring all constraints are identified and desired measures have been designed. Planning permission is the fourth stage of the PAS2035 process.
