)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 are to be provided for surface water run off as a result of any increase in impermeable area, the adequacy of the design and construction of surface water should be confirmed by the Building Control Regulation procedures. The method of disposing of surface water run off should follow the hierarchy set out in Part H of the Building Regulations (i.e. Soakaways/infiltration systems, or then controlled/attenuated discharge to watercourse, or then to a storm water sewer).Surface water drainage arrangements are to be provided for surface water run off as a result of any increase in impermeable area, the adequacy of the design and construction of surface water should be confirmed by the Building Control Regulation procedures.

)The proposed works are to be made safe from the risk of flooding over their lifetime, including the use of flood resistant/resilient measures and methods of construction, where necessary, in line with Improving the Flood Performance of New Buildings: flood resilient construction (GLG, 2007). Flood resistant measures prevent flood waters from being able to enter properties with lower floor levels through the various external openings e.g. via doors, air bricks and backing up the foul sewer pipes. Surface water flooding can happen very quickly with little warning so it is important that the measures used are 'passive' i.e. work automatically without the site users having to manually take action (although they will need to be maintained). Flood Resilient measures are measure that minimise the damage to a property once flood waters have entered the property. They also reduce the amount of time that site users have to be out of a building once flooding has occurred. These measures include raising electrical sockets, raising kitchen cabinets and white goods/electrical, waterproofing floors and walls.The proposed works are to be made safe from the risk of flooding over their lifetime, including the use of flood resistant/resilient measures and methods of construction, where necessary, in line with Improving the Flood Performance of New Buildings: flood resilient construction (GLG, 2007).
