A planning application has been approved for an extension but
subsequent to that it has been noticed that the architects have
misrepresented the position of the main house, moving it away from the
property boundary by a distance such that the extension appears to fit
within the boundary - while in reality the extension overlaps the
boundary by approx. 1m. This may be an accidental error but it seems unlikely.
How common is this kind of practice, and is this something the
planning authority would be concerned with subsequent to approval?
