Building Act 1984 – Section 80 – demolition fees
Notice to Local Authority by persons undertaking works of demolition
Under Section 10(3) of the London Local Authorities Act 2004, Lambeth Council is entitled to recover any expenses reasonably incurred under Section 81 of the Building Act 1984. An invoice for the expenses, which will be incurred by the council in this matter, will be estimated when Section 80 notice is received.
An initial fee (for sites other than those classified as large) of £268 (Exclusive of VAT) is payable and must be sent together with your application. An initial fee of £407 (Exclusive of VAT) is required for larger sites. For this purpose larger sites are defined as sites containing a building greater than 7,100m² or over 30m high. The fee may be reassessed when a Section 80 notice is received, due to the size and complexity of the site.
