Example...
Decision date: 10th November 2006
Works commenced: 10th November 2009
The LPA's Enforcement Officer has been to site and has informed us/the client to cease works as works did not commence within three years. They are threatening enforcement action if a fresh new planning application is not submitted within two weeks.
I have spoken to a Senior Planning Officer at another LPA and she said the council would have to prove the client/works have caused "harm" for the LPA to take enforcement action and she is not sure how they can do this.
What are your views? I'm waiting for a call back from a Planning Consultant to see if they can shed any light on the subject. And the fact the LPA will look at going down the enforcement route for something, which in my opinion is so ridiculous is beyond me. But that's planning.
