Building Control: Initiatives

Development Team Approach

This approach adopts the concept of bringing together all South Tyneside Council regulatory agencies which affect the development process to provide a developer/business/designer with a co-ordinated approach to the development from inception to completion.

It can involve Planning, Building Control, Highways , Environmental Health, Regeneration, Legal Services , etc together with other external bodies, e.g Tyne and Wear Metropolitan Fire Brigade, Northumbria Water and the Environment Agency.

The issues under discussion at the Development Team meeting will go beyond solely Building Control with the purpose being to establish more integrated corporate working practices allowing South Tyneside Council service areas to work in unison reducing the risk for any conflicting advice.
