In essence this requires the entire planning application to be reviewed in light of current rather than previous planning policies. Applications for renewal of an earlier planning permission are usually granted anew, unless there has been a significant change in the relevant material considerations which are to be weighed in the decision.<\/li>\n<li><b>Removal or alteration<\/b>\u00a0of a planning condition: As a matter of law, conditions should only be imposed on a grant of planning permission when compliance with that condition is essential to make an unacceptable development acceptable \u2013 so it would be refused planning permission were it not for that condition. If the applicant or developer wished to proceed with a development without compliance with a condition, or perhaps with the condition in an alternative form, then an application can be made to &#8220;vary&#8221; the condition concerned \u2013 possibly by deleting it or offering an alternative form of words. Note that the LPA cannot alter any planning condition which imposes a time limit when the development is to be commenced. That would require a re-application for full or outline planning permission, but since October 2009 it has been possible to apply to extend an existing consent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The fee for each part would have to be calculated separately on the appropriate basis, subject to any relevant maximum, and the total &#8211; which would not be subject to any maximum &#8211; would then be chargeable. An authority may also, following discussion, allow an application to be separated into core elements so that permission for site preparation works, say, can be given priority. Whether to accept a proposal in hybrid form is at the discretion of the LPA, not something on which an applicant may insist. One should bear in mind that a LPA is empowered to require details even when the application is in outline, if necessary in the interest of good planning. The term \u2018hybrid application\u2019 is not defined in statute.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"part-title\">When you need it<\/h4>\n<p>You\u2019ll probably need planning permission if you want to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>build something new<\/li>\n<li>make a major change to your building, eg building an extension<\/li>\n<li>change the use of your building.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If a project needs planning permission and the work is done without getting it, an \u2018enforcement notice\u2019 can be served ordering the client to undo all the changes that have been made at his own cost.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"part-title\">When you don&#8217;t need it<\/h4>\n<p>Some building projects don\u2019t need planning permission.
