Permission granted for a Kimberley project with conditions attached isn’t the finish line, pre-commencement conditions genuinely need formal discharge before any work starts, and skipping that step puts the whole permission at real risk.
Get StartedA Kimberley permission with conditions attached isn’t fully usable until those conditions are addressed, at least the ones requiring action before commencement. Treating a decision notice as the final step is exactly how people end up building unlawfully without realising it.
The statutory target for a decision in Kimberley is 8 weeks, though realistically it’s worth planning for longer, discharge applications often sit lower down a council’s priority list than live planning applications.
Every Kimberley application gets prepared to the standard the council actually expects, properly labelled and referenced against the specific condition it addresses.
We read every condition on your notice
One fee instead of several separate ones
Properly labelled and referenced
Before you need to break ground

Every Kimberley enquiry starts with a proper read of the decision notice, working out exactly which conditions genuinely need discharging and which are performance conditions that don’t.
From there, we prepare the supporting details for Kimberley’s council, grouped into as few applications as the conditions genuinely allow.
Kimberley submissions get followed properly, with anything the council raises addressed directly rather than left to stall.
Every Kimberley condition gets checked honestly, pre-commencement or not, rather than assumed based on how it’s worded.
Real savings come from submitting Kimberley conditions together wherever the details genuinely allow it, not from cutting corners on what’s actually required.
Whatever stage a Kimberley project’s genuinely at, decision notice just received or work already underway, we handle it with the seriousness the situation actually calls for.

Fees vary by council rather than a single fixed national rate, and Kimberley’s planning authority sets its own charge, worth confirming directly before applying.
8 weeks is the formal target for Kimberley, but realistically planning for 12 to 16 weeks avoids nasty surprises.
It can, in Kimberley grouping conditions into a single application avoids paying the fee repeatedly for separate submissions.
Worth acting on quickly. If work’s already underway in Kimberley, we assess the real situation honestly rather than assume the worst or ignore it.
