3 )Will a new extension affect your Council Tax Charge? The rate of Council Tax you pay depends on which valuation band your home is placed in. This is determined by the market value of your home as at 1 April 1991. Your property's Council Tax band may change if the property is extended.  The Council Tax band will only change when a relevant transaction takes place. For example, if you sell your property after extending it, the new owner may have to pay a higher band of Council Tax. If however you add an annexe to your property, the Valuation Office Agency may decide that the annexe should be banded separately for Council Tax.  If this happens, you will have to start paying Council Tax for the annexe as soon as it is completed. If the annexe is occupied by a relative of the residents of the main dwelling, it may qualify for a Council Tax discount or exemption.  Contact the Council for advice on 0300 300 8306.

5 )The applicants are advised that bats are a protected species under the relevant legislation in the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) (as amended); the Countryside and Rights of Way Act, 2000; the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act (2006); and by the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations (2010). The safeguarding of protected species is also supported by Paragraph 118 of the National Planning Policy Framework which states that planning permission should be refused, " if significant harm resulting from a development cannot be avoided (through locating on an alternative site with less harmful impacts), adequately mitigated, or, as a last resort, compensated for". If the occupiers of the subject dwelling find that during the course of construction of the development their property shows evidence of bat occupation, then a bat report, written by an accredited expert on bat conservation, should be submitted to the Local Planning Authority detailing how the approved development might affect the bat population in question and how any impacts resulting from such development can be mitigated.The applicants are advised that bats are a protected species under the relevant legislation in the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) (as amended); the Countryside and Rights of Way Act, 2000; the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act (2006); and by the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations (2010).
