Planning application
74 Thorney Bay Road Canvey Island Essex SS8 0HQ
Works: Extension Demolition Small domestic
Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Demolition of the existing part-width rear conservatory and construction of a new single-storey rear extension measuring 7.2m in width and projecting 3m from the original rear wall of the dwelling. The extension will have an eaves height to not exceed 3m and a pitched roof with a maximum overall height not exceeding 4m. The external walls will be constructed in brickwork to match the existing dwelling. The proposal includes all associated building works required to construct and connect the extension to the existing dwelling.

The process from here
This application is with Castle Point for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
About lawful development applications
How this application type works
A lawful development certificate is a legal determination, not a planning judgement. It asks the council to confirm either that existing use or works are lawful, often through the passage of time, or that a proposal would not need planning permission at all. The applicant must prove the facts; the merits of the scheme are not considered.
