The CDII contains two independent composing parts: a design of detailed development plan, including a working development plan, if necessary, and an investment design. The CDII is considered by the regional expert council for spatial development. The assessment of the investment design for compliance with the basic requirements to the constructions is prepared according to the provisions of Art. 142, Para. 6 of the SDA – for constructions of first, second and third category compulsory as a complex report, compiled by a registered company – consultant, not connected with the designer; for constructions of lower category – as a complex report on the wish of the assignor, or on the expressed request of the claimant – by the regional expert council for spatial development considering the design before its approval, for which a fee is paid under Tariff № 14 for the fees, collected in the system of the Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works and by the Regional governors. All parts of the CDII approved are signed and sealed by the Regional governor. The parts of the complex design for investment initiative are approved together with the issuing of a construction permit for which the interested persons are notified by a notice promulgated in the State Gazette. The approved detailed development plan together with the order for approval of the parts of the CDII are published on the official website of the administration in the public “Register of acts issued for working out and approving of development plans and their changes”. The construction permit is published on the official website of the administration in the public “Register of issued construction permits”. In the cases stated in Art. 149, Para. 6 of the SDA an announcement is published on the official website of the administration.

Regarding the provisions of Art. 150, Para. 6 of the SDA the composing parts of the CDII for the linear objects of the technical infrastructure are coordinated, approved and announced simultaneously. The term under Art. 145, Para. 4 of the SDA for issuing a construction permit begins to run from the conclusion of the expropriation proceedings or from the settlement of other property related relations and the permission for construction is announced only under the order of Art. 149, Para. 5 of the SDA. A copy of the enforced construction permit is sent to the municipal administrations concerned. The original of the construction permit is kept permanently in the archives under the Spatial Development Act of the Regional administration of Veliko Tarnovo. The enforced construction permits are no subject to revocation. Protocols and certifications under Art. 157, Para. 1 of the SDA for beginning of a construction, permitted pursuant to a complex design for investment initiative may not be drawn up without changing of the designation of a territory or a land property if required by another law. Refusal to approve the parts of a CDII and issue a construction permit is issued with an order of the Regional governor announced by addressing a written notification to the interested persons.
