)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.

)The flood risk reports in this general area associated with surface water run off and exceedance of the urban drainage network, is set out in detail in the Council's flood investigation report ref. CB/FLO/16/00001. We therefore recommend the applicant be made aware of this and ensure that the proposed works a) will be resilient and resistant to the risk of surface water ingress into the property and b) that the works do not increase the risk off flooding to others by impeding or altering existing overland flow drainage paths. We do not wish to be reocnsulted. For mor einformation please see the NPGG section Flood resilience and flood resistance for more information on the flood measures that could be provided:
Flood resistance, or dry-proofing, stops water entering a building. Flood resilience, or wet-proofing, accepts that water will enter the building, but through careful design will minimise damage and allow the re-occupancy of the building quickly. Flood resistance and resilience measures should not be used to justify development in inappropriate locations;
Flood resilient: Flood-resilient buildings are designed and constructed to reduce the impact of flood water entering the building so that no permanent damage is caused, structural integrity is maintained and drying and cleaning is easier. The Department for Communities and Local Government has published Improving the Flood Performance of New Buildings: flood resilient construction (2007). This provides guidance on how to improve the resilience of new properties in low or residual flood risk areas by the use of suitable materials and construction details.
Flood resistance: Flood-resistant construction can prevent entry of water or minimise the amount that may enter a building where there is short duration flooding outside with water depths of 0.6 metres or less. This form of construction should be used with caution and accompanied by resilience measures, as effective flood exclusion may depend on occupiers ensuring some elements, such as barriers to doorways, are put in place and maintained in a good state. Buildings may also be damaged by water pressure or debris being transported by flood water. This may breach flood-excluding elements of the building and permit rapid inundation. Temporary and demountable defences are not appropriate for new developments.
Further advice on what needs to be considered in the use of appropriate flood resilience and resistance measures.
