The charges shown in this document are inclusive of VAT.  \nIndividual quotations will be given to all Reversion applications and all works not included as standard charges. A ‘full plans’ submission will include an ‘architectural’ type drawing containing a full building specification and generally the charge is paid in two parts. A plan charge is deposited with the paperwork and a further inspection charge will be invoiced to the applicant after the first inspection of the work on site. The drawings will be approved when they show compliance with the requirements of the Building Regulations.  \nThe charges assume that the work does not involve innovative or high-risk construction techniques and that the duration of the work does not exceed 24 months. Any variation to this will require a separate quotation. The charges assume that the design and building work is undertaken by a person or company that is competent to carry out the work. If they are subsequently found to not be competent then the owner may incur an additional charge.  \nIf external consultants are required to be used by Milton Keynes City Council then their costs may be passed on to the person having the works undertaken.  \nCharges are not payable for:  \n􀁸 Where a plan has been rejected for the resubmission of the scheme provided the scheme is substantially the same as before.  \n􀁸 Informal advice and consultations on meeting the Building Regulations up to one hour.  \n􀁸 Where work is solely for a disabled person in line with The Building (Local Authority Charges) Regulations 2010.  \nEstimated cost of work:  \nThis means an estimate, accepted by Milton Keynes Council, of such reasonable amount as would be charged for carrying out that work by a person in business to carry out such work. Therefore, no reduction is permitted for DIY work. Estimates should exclude VAT, land acquisition costs, and professional fees paid to architects, engineers or  \nsurveyors. Completion Certificates:  \nA completion certificate will be issued upon satisfactory completion of the work. Where an inspection is requested against an application where more than three years have elapsed since the previous inspection, an additional charge of £195.00 will be payable.  \nIndividually determined charges: the following projects will require an individually determined charge:  \n􀁸 a change of use of the whole, or part, of a building, Basements, Reversion applications, Regularisation applications not identified in the charges tables.  \n1 of 4  \n\n| TABLE A: STANDARD CHARGES FOR THE CREATION OR CONVERSION TO NEW DWELLING (£) |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| No | Full Plans |  | Building Notice Charge |\n|  | Plan Charge | Inspection Charge |  |\n| 1 | 312 | 813.60 | 1238.40 |\n\nThe charge for dwelling with total floor area up to 300m2 includes an attached or detached single storey garage up to 30m² floor area.
