Building (Local Authority Charges) Regulations 1998
Increase to charges for Building Control from 1 April 2008.
Our revised charges come into effect on 1st April 2008. Whilst every effort has been made during the past year to limit our costs unfortunately it has been necessary to increase our charges in order that we can continue to provide the high quality service that you have come to expect from South Tyneside Building Control.
We are sure that you agree that these charges still represent excellent value for money and will ensure that South Tyneside continues to be served by the best building control provider in the region.
View the Building Regulations Charges Sheet.
A cheque to cover the relevant charge should be submitted with each application. This should be made payable to South Tyneside Council.
For a Full Plans application, the relevant amount will be the Application Charge. For a Building Notice application the relevant amount will be the Building Notice Charge. Where works have already commenced, a Regularisation Charge is then payable.
Miscellaneous charges
A number of miscellaneous charges apply for additional services and the provision of documentation such as additional copies of decision notices and completion certificates.
