Planning permission is nothing but a certain piece of construction work that is required while you are planning to build your own house on a certain piece of land or want to make small to large changes in your existing house. In Berkshire, planning permission is a must approval that is needed for constructing a new building. Planning applications have a straightforward journey to approval. Sometimes, it is granted but sometimes it is refused by the authority.
Anybody can apply but if you wish then you can hire a planning consultant or an architect to make the plan successful. However, you can also apply for planning permission even if you don’t yet own it. You can ask for a negotiation with the land lower before applying for planning permission.
The very first thing you would do is to submit the application to the local planning authority. Then the authority will then publicize your application in the newspaper. The public is given a few times to comment on your application. After a certain period, a decision will be made.
It takes almost eight to eight weeks of being submitted. In most of the cases, the higher authority will approve your application. But if they find any fault then they will refuse it and tell you to apply it for again. In Berkshire you can apply for planning permission for a number of times and whenever you want. In case if your neighbors have any objections against you then it will not put any impact on the final decision.
