hi,
I entered my planning application for development work a couple of years ago, at the time we were up against a large CIL payment for changing from commercial to residential. This is because the site was vacant. To fix this we removed change of use from that plan, and used the site in its lawful capacity while developing against the now approved development plan.
Now we have completed a bunch of the works and want to move in, but that will require a change of use application. We are still developing part of the site against the existing approved application.
Whats the best way to proceed? is it ok to submit a new application while one is unfinished?
or
Can I upgrade the existing approved plan to change of use?
cheers (planning is a minefield)
