Decision details

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.

The Verandah is not considered significantly harmful enough in planning terms adversely affecting the character of the area or neighbour amenity for it to be in the public interest to enforce.

Formal action considered. Planning Permission would likely be granted for the Verandah which is to the rear elevation of the property and is not visible from the public highway.

Not applicable
