Demolition - control and advice
When intending to demolish a building, a notice must be made to the
Building Control section, which is usually a minimum of six weeks
prior to work commencing. You can
complete a notice of intended demolition online or submit your
intention in writing.
A location plan of the building and adjoining streets must be
provided together with a method statement for the demolition of
larger buildings.
Notification should be sent to the occupier(s) of any adjacent
buildings. Statutory undertakers (e.g. Gas, Electricity and Water
suppliers) should also be notified in order that they may arrange
for their services to be properly sealed.
The Environmental Health and Planning Divisions may also require
consultation prior to demolition of any building.
