Anyone considering the construction of a facility for their company must consider the requirement to collect the complete set of documentation, including construction designs and building permits. Without a full set of documents, visits to offices and, above all, an understanding of the entire construction administration process, it is impossible to begin implementing even the most carefully planned design. When the decision to build an office building, warehouse or shopping mall has been made, it is time to go on the road so that the design can be transformed into an actual structure. Essentially this involves the following:
It should be prepared by a professional design office. It contains all the primary and very important information and assumptions on the planned construction: the size and purpose of the building, footprint and the type of materials to be used during the construction. A well-prepared concept includes a sketch of the planned building, an architectural plan, a map for design purposes, the building cross-section and visualizations. It also includes a land development plan, which specifies the building location, road layout, logistics, number and locations of parking spaces, etc. A solid concept is based on the results of a geotechnical study, information from utility providers, etc., so it is a good idea to entrust its preparation to experienced professionals.
During the visit to these local authorities, it is important to ask a fundamental question: is there a zoning plan in place? If there is such a plan, you need to submit a request for a copy and the associated drawings. If there is no such documentation, it is necessary to submit a request for zoning approval, which should include such information as: purpose of the building, area and size of development, type of electric power supply, water drainage and supply method and the biologically active area. To submit a request, you must also specify such parameters as: required hardening, number of parking spaces, access method and features of the planned structures, such as fire tanks. There are also situations that require a decision on environmental conditions.
A construction design must contain complete information regarding: architecture, land development, construction, technology, electrical and sanitary systems, and the road infrastructure. Preparation of a full construction design requires consultation with institutions operating near the construction site, such as the road authority or conservation officer.
Only after collecting a complete set of documents can you handle the formalities and submit a request for a building permit to the Department of Architecture and Construction at the local Poviat Office. The path through the formalities may extend even further, depending on the type of project. In the case of production buildings, you need to obtain an environmental decision. To obtain one, you must submit a request to the City Hall, which then goes to the Regional Directorate for Environmental Protection. In some cases, you should obtain a permit required by the Water Law, by submitting a request to the Polish Waters National Water Management.
