WHY THE GOVERNMENT DEMOLISH BUILDINGS WITHOUT APPROVED BUILDING PLANS

Many people wrongly believe that building plan approval is just another unnecessary government requirement. It is not. One of the legitimate ways governments generate revenue is through building plan approval fees. Beyond revenue, the approval process ensures that buildings comply with planning regulations, safety standards, road setbacks, drainage requirements and the overall development plan of an area. When property owners deliberately avoid obtaining building plan approval, they are not only violating planning laws but also depriving the government of legally prescribed revenue. This is why development control agencies regularly carry out enforcement exercises to identify and remove illegal developments. Before you buy land or start construction, confirm that: • The land is suitable for the proposed development. • Your building plans have been prepared by qualified professionals. • The relevant planning authority has granted building plan approval before construction begins. Ignoring this process can turn what seems like a cost-saving decision into a devastating financial loss.
