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 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.

    On the hard standing courtyard that forms the central part of the NAC site we want to erect a temporary marquee to enable activities to happen in a COVID-safe manner outdoors but under canvas for summer 2021 and in subsequent years. The activities are part of NAC's ongoing charitable mission to provide cultural opportunities for the community of Wolverhampton to enjoy a wide range of events, classes and exhibitions etc. This project has been supported by a wide range of partners who see it as an urgent and necessary response to the COVID-19 ongoing pandemic - these include: Arts Council England, Children In Need, The Paul Hamlyn Charitable Foundation and Wolverhampton City Council. The site is jointly owned by Wolverhampton City Council and City of Wolverhampton College. Both have been consulted about this development and are positive about its potential to contribute to the city's post-COVID recovery. The marquee will be in place between May - September 2021 and will be removed and stored onsite for the winter months. Activities planned for this temporary structure from May-September 2021 include: creative activities for children and families during the summer holidays; rehearsals for young people's creative groups such as Wolverhampton Music Service and Stagecoach Wolverhampton. Live events such as a children's theatre festival and one-day folk festival.
