Hello
Could you dig out foundations for an extension before hearing a decision on the planning permission? We have applied for permission for a two-storey extension. Downstairs it extends 4m. If by any chance the planning application gets rejected, we're planning do get a ground floor only extension, still extending 4m. Apparently we can do this under permitted development, as long as the neighbours do not object (they do not intend to). So either way we will need the foundations dug.
We are in a bit of a rush due to circumstances, so wondered if this would be a good way of saving some time, or would we be in breach of planning regulations or anything else? (Party wall agreement aside.)
Many thanks
