INFORMATION NOTE OF THE DEVELOPMENT AND CONSERVATION MANAGER.

 

To provide Members with a quarterly update on planning enforcement.  

 

Decision:

The Principal Planning Officer (Conservation and Enforcement) presented the Information Note entitled ‘Planning Enforcement Quarterly Report – Part 2’.

Minutes:

N.B. This item was considered in restricted session and therefore no recordings are available.

 

The Principal Planning Officer (Conservation and Enforcement) presented the Information Note entitled ‘Planning Enforcement Quarterly Report – Part 2’ and highlighted that:

 

·       Recent monitoring of Uptown Pizza found no continued evidence of license breaches, but any further breaches may result in further legal action.

·       Regarding the land at Three Houses Lane, Officers were awaiting an update from the Planning Inspector and in the meantime monitoring would continue.

·       The Land adjacent to Pulmer Water had an application to regularise its use as a Gypsy and Traveller site had been refused. The anticipated appeal has not been forthcoming, and conversation with Legal will continue to determine next steps.

·       The Cabinet in Reed is still waiting for a decision from the Planning Inspectorate, however we have now been advised that the cases have been allocated to a Planning Inspector and the case is finally progressing through the process. For confirmation, the matters relate to change of use, internal works. In addition, we are also looking into the potential breach of historic Enforcement Notice.

 

In response to a question by Martin Prescott, the Principal Planning Officer advised that the land at The Cabinet, Reed was to be on sale by auction with information on the company website.
