Do I need planning permission for a water meter, alarm box, TV aerial, new soil pipe etc?
You will not need to apply for planning permission for a water meter or alarm box unless you: • live in an Article 4 Direction Area. Please refer to leaflets “Article 4 Direction, A Householders Guide to Legislation”. • your home is a Listed Building you will need Listed Building consent. For information on TV aerials, please see satellite dishes. Flues and soil and vent pipes must not extend more than 1m above the highest part of the roof.
