Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Variation of condition 2 (plans) and 27 (bathroom windows) of S/2019/1728/MAF (Conversion of existing buildings to residential development of 15no. dwellings) provide for the provision of a new electric meter room at ground floor in the shared courtyard. Meter room to be built in reclaim brick taken from the original building. The amended drawings will also provide for a new brick enclosure on ground floor to plot number 2 in lieu of a glazed external screen and the bathroom window in side (east) elevation of the rear projection serving Flats 10-14 shall be obscure glazed, using manufactured obscure glass and not an applied film before the dwelling is first occupied. These windows shall be permanently fixed shut thereafter. They will only open in the event of a smoke alarm trigger to electromagnetic shearlocks catches within the frame to allow escape from Flats 10-14 in the event of a fire.

What a grant of permission means

The process from here

Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.

Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.

About full applications applications

How this application type works

A full application seeks permission for a complete, detailed proposal in one go: siting, design, access and landscaping are all fixed at this stage. It is the standard route for new buildings, conversions and changes of use. The statutory target is eight weeks for smaller schemes and thirteen weeks for major development, though complex cases often take longer by agreement.
