From this months Observer. Anyone know the background, which development is affected? Is this part of the recent enforcement and will others be affected?

This isn't meant to be alarmist, just after the facts.

Thanks.

Notice from Hua Hin Municipality

A warning has been issued by the Hua Hin Municipality to owners of buildings and properties that they must prepare the correct documents to make a proper application for building permission.

Mr. Somboon Chartgijjarern, the Deputy Mayor, with officer Nitigorn from the surveying unit and officers of Hua Hin Police station, went to check properties in the Borkeaw area, Kao Tao Subdivision, Hua Hin District, Prachuabkirikhan. They found that in this area three buildings had been built without permission to build from the Municipality of Hua Hin. This broke Thai law dating from 1979, which states that any owner of the building changing, renovating or moving a building without building permission from the Municipality of that area can be imprisoned for not more than 3 months or fined not more than 10,000 THB. or both, and will be fined 10,000 THB. until building permission has been approved.

Mr. Somboon Chartgijjarern has already halted construction on the case in question.

He would like to warn anybody who aims to start building a house or any building in this area must present a master plan for the application of building construction, at Hua Hin servicing unit Municipality of Hua Hin, and to please comply with the laws of Thailand when building or renovating buildings.

Please contact 032-534 461 ext 300 if you have any questions or need any documents.

nothing new here,
all intended build works must be approved by the tessabaan (sic).this requirement is for new builds within the hua hin region.if you live outside hua hin a few kms then you must get approval from the local regional office.

the law stated is for extensions/renovations.

probably existing buildings encroaching on others private property.
