)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 applicant is advised that the proposed two storey side extension would have an impact on the natural canopy spread of an adjacent Swedish Whitebeam tree, which is located on Council amenity land to the side of the property. The extension will encroach into the spread of this tree, and the inevitable pruning required to accommodate the new structure will cause crown disfigurement and imbalance of what is a presently well-formed and attractive tree. Furthermore, the tree is likely to require constant pruning thereafter, in order to avoid direct damage being caused to the two storey side extension, thus imposing an unnecessary financial burden on those responsible for its maintenance.The applicant is advised that the proposed two storey side extension would have an impact on the natural canopy spread of an adjacent Swedish Whitebeam tree, which is located on Council amenity land to the side of the property.
