General Permitted Development covers the rights to carry out certain building and other works without a full planning application, subject to limits, conditions and exclusions set out in the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order. A solicitor in this area reviews appropriate thresholds, submissions, and potential prior approvals, drafts or verifies notices and certificates, and advises on how to stay within permitted development rights while pursuing practical development aims. This work is shaped by local planning authorities and national guidance.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
Solicitors navigate the nuanced thresholds, time limits, and conditions that govern permitted development, including prior approvals where applicable. They advise on how proposed works fit within the GPDO, prepare and submit necessary notifications, assess potential impacts on neighbours and the environment, and coordinate with planning authorities to resolve any ambiguities or disputes within the statutory framework.
