Hello again
Another point that has come up with the same windows as the other thread I have going.
On the road facing windows planning have said that we cannot fit large opening windows only fanlights as are already there.
But for building regs/Fensa I will need to add some fire egress openers as these are flats and several of them don't currently comply with fire escape routes.
I had already spoke to building control about these windows before the letter from planning. The windows would open directly over the pavement at head/chest height. Building control agreed I could add fire egress windows with non locking restrictors.
I would assume building regs/safety should come first here and over rule the planning people?
