Decision:

Decision: To take no further action 
 

This decision is taken under delegated powers set out in Paragraph 145 of the Officer Scheme of Delegation in the Council’s constitution, which grants delegated authority to undertake all action in order to regulate any actual, perceived or potential breach of any 

of the Town and Country Planning Legislation including: 

  

 

To determine whether or not to take and/or to cease action whether because in his/her opinion the breach is trivial, there is insufficient demonstrable harm and/or, it is not expedient to take / continue to take action 

 

This authority has been delegated to me through the Local Scheme of Nomination for the Executive Director for Place. 

 

Reasons for the decision:

The unauthorised structure is an extension to an existing industrial building on an industrial estate. The extension and land has been in use for two years now and there have been no reports that the use is causing a disturbance to neighbours. The use and building are acceptable in planning policy terms and permission would be granted for them. 

Alternative options considered:

Formal Action is not in the public interest as the development accords with adopted policy and no reports have been received that is causing any harm. 

 

 

Interests and Nature of Interests Declared:

None.

Financial Implications:

None.

Legal Implications:

None.
