Temporary listingE+W

83Service of temporary listing noticeE+W

(1)This section applies if a planning authority considers that a building in its area which is not a listed building (and is not treated as one by virtue of section 79(2)) is—

(a)of special architectural or historic interest, and

(b)in danger of being demolished or of being altered in a way that would affect its character as a building of special architectural or historic interest.

(2)The authority may serve a temporary listing notice on every owner and occupier of the building.

(3)A temporary listing notice is a notice which—

(a)states that the planning authority—

(i)considers the building to be of special architectural or historic interest, and

(ii)has requested the Welsh Ministers to consider listing it, and

(b)explains the effect of subsection (4), section 85 and Schedule 7.

(4)As soon as a temporary listing notice has been served on every owner and occupier of the building to which it relates, this Act (except sections 118 and 137 to 142) and the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (c. 8) have effect in relation to the building as if it were a listed building.

(5)The protection conferred by virtue of subsection (4) is referred to in this Part as “temporary listing”.

84Temporary listing in urgent casesE+W

(1)This section applies if a planning authority considers it urgent that temporary listing should take effect in relation to a building in its area.

(2)The authority may, instead of serving a temporary listing notice on each owner and occupier of the building—

(a)attach the notice conspicuously to the building, or

(b)if it is not reasonably practicable to attach the notice to the building, or the authority considers that doing so might damage the building, display the notice in a prominent place as near to the building as is reasonably practicable.

(3)Attaching or displaying a notice in accordance with subsection (2) is to be treated for the purposes of section 83(4) as serving the notice on every owner and occupier of the building.

(4)The notice must explain that by virtue of having been attached or displayed in accordance with subsection (2) the notice is treated as having been served for those purposes.

(3)If the Welsh Ministers notify the planning authority in writing that they do not intend to consult under section 78 on a proposal to list the building, temporary listing ends at the beginning of the day specified in the notification.

(4)Schedule 7 makes provision about the effect of temporary listing coming to an end—

(a)the authority must immediately give notice of that decision to every owner and occupier of the building;
