In accordance with the Local Land Charges Code of Practice, this council aims to limit fee alterations to once a year, namely 1 April.
Additional parcels of land
The guidance note on the LLC1 states in respect of a Parcel of Land:
'A separate requisition for search should be made in respect of each parcel of land in respect of which a search is required except where, for the purpose of a single transaction, a certificate is required in respect of two or more parcels of land which have a common boundary or are separated only by a road, railway, river, stream or canal. Parcel of Land' means land (including a building or part of a building) which is separately occupied or separately rated or, if not occupied or rated, in separate ownership. For the purpose of this definition an owner is the person who (in his own right or as trustee for any other person) is entitled to receive the rack rent of land, or, where the land is not let at a rack rent, would be so entitled if it were so let.'
A parcel of land is each separately owned or occupied piece of land or dwelling which is within the area outlined in red on the search plan.
We can only accept a Search which covers several parcels if the boundaries of each parcel actually abut.
We do not classify garages as separate parcels where they form part of one title.
If the boundaries of the parcels do not abut, then we require a separate search for each parcel.
