Lawful Development Certificate
If you want to be certain that the existing use of a building is lawful for planning purposes or that your proposal does not require planning permission, you can apply for a ‘Lawful Development Certificate’ (LDC).
It is not compulsory to have an LDC but there may be times when you need one to confirm that the use, operation or activity named in it is lawful for planning control purposes. For example, if you are selling or sub-dividing a property, or if planners are threatening enforcement action.
The issues involved in LDCs are often complex and if you decide you need to apply for a certificate it is wise to obtain professional advice.
If your application is refused, or is not determined within the time limit of eight weeks, you can appeal.
