To decline to determine application
P/FUL/2022/03161
In May 1996 an enforcement notice (ENF/5/96) was served on this site,
Land at 21 Barnsfield Road, St Leonards, to prevent
the stationing of a mobile home for residential use. This was appealed and the
notice was upheld in February 1997.
Subsequently a planning application was submitted 19/05/2022 (P/FUL/2022/03161)
for the change of use of the land for the siting of one mobile home and
erection of one dayroom for gypsy/traveler
accommodation.
Under S70C of the
Town and Country Planning Act 1990, the Council has declined to determine the
application as there is an extant enforcement notice which covers all of the land and the development proposed includes the
matters specified in the original enforcement notice.
This decision is taken under delegated powers set out
in Paragraph 136(a) of the Officer Scheme of Delegation in the Council’s
constitution, which grants delegated authority “To undertake all action
in respect of administering / processing any application under any of the Town
and Country Planning Legislation including the power to:
(a) determine whether
any application has been validly made and/or whether to decline to register
and/or determine any application including to decline to determine any
application which s/he considers to be a repeat application, relating to an
extant enforcement action and/or as a result of the
submission of inadequate/insufficient information;”
This authority has been delegated to me through the
Local Scheme of Nomination for Planning Services - Executive Director for Place.
