)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.

)Surface water drainage arrangements must be provided for the increase in surface water run off as a result of the proposed works, the adequacy of the design and construction of this should be confirmed by the Building Control Regulation procedures. The Building Regulations dictate an order of priority for the disposal of surface water run off that
the proposed development must follow, this is:
1. Into the ground (infiltration) and re-use, or then
2. To a surface water body, or then
3. To a surface water sewer, highway drain, or another drainage system, or then
4. To a public sewer*.
*Central Bedfordshire Council will not permit connection to a foul sewer.Surface water drainage arrangements must be provided for the increase in surface water run off as a result of the proposed works, the adequacy of the design and construction of this should be confirmed by the Building Control Regulation procedures.

)Anglian Water's surface water management policy states: A surface water connection to the combined or foul sewer can only be permitted under exceptional circumstances if evidence shows that the previous site was connected to the same sewer and there are no other new feasible discharge options. Anglian Water will seek to separate any surface water from ANY new developments to relieve the existing pressures and treatment requirements (see online: http://www.anglianwater.co.uk/developers/surface-water-policy.aspx).Anglian Water's surface water management policy states: A surface water connection to the combined or foul sewer can only be permitted under exceptional circumstances if evidence shows that the previous site was connected to the same sewer and there are no other new feasible discharge options.

)Given that BGS (British Geological Society) data held by the Council shows that infiltration is likely possible on site, it is recommend that this be prioritised for the disposal of surface water, subject to testing taking place on-site (in accordance with BRE365 standards) to inform the final design of the drainage system.Given that BGS (British Geological Society) data held by the Council shows that infiltration is likely possible on site, it is recommend that this be prioritised for the disposal of surface water, subject to testing taking place on-site (in accordance with BRE365 standards) to inform the final design of the drainage system. |

)The development should also consider integrating water re-use, via systems that collect runoff from roofs or other impermeable surfaces to make it available for non-potable use, as is priortised in the Council's adopted supplementary planning guidance document for sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) (See online: http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/planning/flooding/suds.aspx).The development should also consider integrating water re-use, via systems that collect runoff from roofs or other impermeable surfaces to make it available for non-potable use, as is priortised in the Council's adopted supplementary planning guidance document for sustainable drainage systems (SUDS) (See online: http://www.centralbedfordshire.gov.uk/planning/flooding/suds.aspx). |
