Hi all,
This may be an extremely stupid question but I’m going to ask it
We have planning permission to block pave our driveway. We’ve started the work and the contractor asked us how we wanted the design of the steps leading up to the front door. We’ve gone with one rectangular shaped step.
However we’ve just noticed on the planning design that our architect has drawn two semi-circle steps leading up to the door. There’s no actual notes on the design that explicitly says they are steps but you would assume they are.
There are also no notes on the planning approval letter explicitly stating we are to have two semi-circle steps leading up to the door.
So the question is, in anyone’s experience does us changing to a single rectangular step leading up to the door instead of the two semi-circle steps as indicated on the drawings cause us an issue with the planning dept?
Changing the shape and amount of steps (still taking up the same amount of space) surely wouldn’t mean we’ve deviated from the planning permission and mean we’d have to submit a non-material amendment?
We’ll try and get hold of the local planning dept next week but thought I’d ask others opinions first.
