No. Planning consent expires in January 2018. It was Wael who said it expired in August but he was wrong. Still, I'm sure he's got it all under control.

It was Wael who said it expired in August but he was wrong. Still, I'm sure he's got it all under control. There is an undefined date before Jan 2018 that's important. This date is when the building contractor is announced. To ensure the permission doesn't lapse, work must commence before it expires in January. A couple of men can't just turn up with shovels and dig a hole, so Wael must appoint a contractor soon so that they can start work. The longer there is no announcement, the less likely work will start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 1 minute ago, JamesBCFC said: Dont they have to make a start by next month or something though? To have any chance of starting in January they will need to have appointed a contractor by at least September for a project of that size. As far as anyone knows, the job hasn`t even gone out to tender yet. I doubt the project spec has even been written - let`s face it, Wally`s known for months it`s dead in the water so why go to the expense of the preparatory work. As @pongo88 rightly says, the days when a couple of blokes could just rock up on site, dig a couple of holes, and bugger off for two years to keep the permission valid are long gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other thing is we surely would have heard something from someone on here who works for/has contacts with any subbies that have been approached. Even if the job doesn`t go to tender (which I can`t believe for one minute) then the preferred contractor would have had to sound out any subcontractors he wanted to use for costings, availability etc. There`s no way anything like that could possibly be kept secret with all the people that would have to be involved.

What point to they have to get to by the deadline? I'm not in the construction / planning game so was wondering. Will ground clearance suffice or do they actually have to be above ground or something? Another question, I don't get the August 'deadline' when their PP runs out in January?

I think that in the most simple terms possible and also without in depth knowledge myself, their planning permission expires in Feb 2018. The "August thing" is because there is something about having started within 6 months of planning expiring. Digging a few holes will no longer surfice. I believe you need to have put in the footings/foundations, to then be able to say you've "started". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
