PLANNING IN PRINCIPLE

Following a grant of permission in principle, the site must receive a grant of technical details consent before development can proceed. The granting of technical details consent has the effect of granting planning permission for the development. Other statutory requirements may apply at this stage such as those relating to protected species or listed buildings. Technical details consent can be obtained following submission of a valid application to the local planning authority. An application for technical details consent must be in accordance with the permission in principle that is specified by the applicant. 2. The proposed development will be liable for a charge under the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Regulations 2010 (as amended). The amount of the liability will be calculated when the related Technical Details Consent application is determined.
