Inspection of building work in progress is
carried out to monitor key construction stages and to confirm
compliance with building regulations and associated codes
of practice. North Wiltshire District Council is responsible
for most things that the planning system does in this area.
Among the most important are; the production of development
plans; the processing of planning applications and the enforcement
of planning legislation.
Whether we like it or not, the planning system is used to
ensure that the things we need like schools, roads, houses,
places to work etc. get built in the right places and that
the wrong things do not get built at all.
Planning permission is required for carrying out construction,
alteration to buildings or their change of use. The planning
permission gives you approval to undertake the works as described
in your application.
Planning Portal: A very
useful government guideline, offering an online service for
