To consider the Head of Planning’s Report No. PLN1811 (copy attached) which reports on cases of planning enforcement and possible unauthorised development. Minutes: The Committee received the Head of Planning’s Report No. PLN1811, which provided an update with regard to the position of the former Lafarge site and adjoining land at Hollybush Lane North, south of North Camp railway station. The Committee was informed that an Enforcement Notice was served in September 2015 in respect of unauthorised material change of use of land to: (a) commercial car spares/car sales use; and (b) storage of scrapped cars; both with associated development comprising construction of bunds, hard surfaces, roads, fences and siting of structures on the land. This Enforcement Notice was subject to an appeal heard at a Public Inquiry in October 2016. This appeal was dismissed by two subsequent Inspector’s decisions dated 30th November, 2016 and 23rd August, 2017 and an amended Enforcement Notice took effect from 23rd August, 2017. This Notice required staged compliance within three months (by 23rd November, 2017), within six months (by 23rd February, 2018) and within twelve months (by 23rd August, 2018). The Committee was advised that an inspection of the site was undertaken on 6th April, 2018 as a check at an intermediate stage on the landowner’s progress towards compliance with the requirements of the Enforcement Notice. This inspection revealed that substantial progress had been made and the site was now largely empty and the breaches of planning control had mostly been rectified. As a result of this progress, the Committee noted that it was not currently considered expedient for the Council to commence prosecution proceedings in respect of the residual non-completion of some requirements due to have been completed by 23rd November, 2017 and 23rd February, 2018. RESOLVED: That the Head of Planning’s Report No. PLN1811 be noted. |
