Hi could anybody offer any advice, we are putting in planning application for retention, using plans that were drawn up by the architect when
we built the house. I am going to get these printed off in A3 and just wondering, On the plans the scale is 1:100 but I see on the council website,
site layout etc and elevations can not be any smaller than 1:200 and 1:500. Will I need to get them adjusted before printing. Sorry if it sounds
like I don't know what I am talking about but just a bit confused.
 
1:100 is a larger scale than 1:200/1:500.

Just be careful when you copy the drawings that they are actually 1:100, i.e. if they are correct 1:100 scale at A4 then they won't be 1:100 at A3. If they are 1:100 at A0 then changing to A3 will throw the scale off completely and your application will likely be invalidated.
