Decision Maker: Executive Director, Place
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
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:
(f) 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 condition of the property is considered to have improved recently not warranting the service of an enforcement notice. The container in the rear garden is only marginally over the height limit to be considered permitted development.
Alternative options considered:
Formal Action. Action would likely fail if challenged as the condition of the property is not causing significant harm to the amenity of area and the lawful fall back position for the container could cause more harm.
