  • Coventry City Council (18 006 468)

    Statement Upheld Planning applications 29-Mar-2019

    Summary: Mr X complains the Council gave an inaccurate description of a development when it sent him a consultation, did not respond to his letters seeking clarification and did not properly assess the impact on his solar panels. The Ombudsman finds there was fault when the Council publicised the planning application with a factually wrong description.

Further, there was no fault in how the Council handled Mr X’s letters of representation or in its conclusion the effect of the development on his solar panels was not a material planning consideration.
