A Fetcham decision notice covered in conditions is normal, most permissions carry some. What matters is knowing which ones need discharging before you break ground, since starting work too early can mean building unlawfully.
Get StartedFetcham decision notices typically separate conditions into two real categories, ones that need discharging before work starts, and ones that can wait until a later stage. Confusing the two is a genuinely common and costly mistake.
The council charges a fee for each discharge request in Fetcham, though submitting multiple conditions together in one application usually means paying that fee just once, worth doing wherever the conditions genuinely allow it.
We read every condition on your Fetcham decision notice properly, not just the obvious ones, and group what can genuinely be submitted together to avoid paying multiple separate fees.
