A
lthough a requirement for most new
developments, other – often forgotten
- planning measures encouraging
sustainable drainage (or SuDS) also apply to
new or replacement paving around existing
properties. They are explained in brand new
editions of Interpave’s ‘Permitted Paving’and
other guidelines, which are now available to
download via http://www.paving.org.uk
Originating from the government-backed
Pitt Review, various requirements for SuDS
affecting retrofitted new and replacement
paving were put in place through changes to
planning rules in England, Scotland and
Wales some time ago. But the growing
awareness of the importance of SuDS and
permeable paving in the fight against flooding
means increasingly robust enforcement by
local authorities today.
Before these changes, paving anywhere in
a garden related to a ‘dwellinghouse’ or
within various non-residential properties,
using any materials, was considered to be
‘permitted development’ – effectively, an
automatic planning permission without
needing a planning application. But these
rights no longer apply to new or replacement
drives or other paving between a house and
the street, or within industrial, warehouse,
office and shop premises – unless it is
permeable paving or drains water onto a
permeable area within the property.
Otherwise planning permission will be
needed but – with the latest national and local
planning policies encouraging or requiring
SuDS – unlikely to be granted. For example,
the Greater London Authority includes a
strong presumption against impermeable
paving in its proposed planning policies.
