Yes, you need to include drawings or plans with your report, especially if you are submitting a Building Notice or Full Plans application. Here's a breakdown of what's needed:
| Application Type | Required Drawings/Plans |
|---|---|
| Building Notice | - Drawings (metric scale of at least 1:100) showing existing and proposed layout, including floor plans and elevations. |
| - Block plan (scale of at least 1:1250) showing size, position, and relationship to boundaries. | |
| - Drawings for drainage provisions. | |
| Full Plans Application | - All necessary constructional details and structural calculations. For this, seeking professional advice is recommended. |
| - Same as above for Building Notice. | |
| Certificate of Lawfulness | - Copy of other plans and drawings (existing and proposed elevations and floor plans, block plan). |
It's essential to ensure all plans are to the correct scale and adequately reflect the proposed work. If you're unsure about the specific requirements for your application, contacting the council for guidance before submission is a good idea.
