Assignment Brief
Scenario:
You work for a civil engineering contracting company tasked with producing a report assessing the impact of Planning and Building Control legislation on land and building development. The report is divided into two main sections:
The first section examines the processes involved in obtaining planning consents. This requires explaining key legislation, identifying responsible agencies overseeing the planning process, and detailing procedures from application to consent, including appeals processes. Additionally, analyze the planning system and relevant agencies managing land and building development.
The second section discusses building control processes and regulations ensuring appropriate and safe building design. Explain primary and secondary legislation, the role of different controlling bodies in design determination and control, and analyze how building regulations apply to different building types in the project.
In conclusion, evaluate the impact of planning and building control legislation on development management.
