Q
: How long does it take to get planning Permission?
A: The time to prepare the necessary drawings & documents for a
planning application varies greatly depending on the project. However
once your application is lodged an response from the Planning Authority
is due within 8 weeks.
At his point your application could be granted or refused or more
information could be requested. If your application is granted
this will be a preliminary grant & a final grant will be issued a
month & five days later unless the application is appealed.
Where further information is requested on an application & the
requested information is returned a response will be due within
4 weeks form the date of re-submission.
It should also be noted that once planning has been granted that
you must give notice of your intention to start building. It is required
to give a minimum of two weeks notice of your start date but not
more than 4 weeks notice. These issues should be allowed for in the
time scale of your project. |
