Richmondshire District Council (22 011 975)
Statement Upheld Planning applications 28-Jun-2023
Summary: The Council made mistakes in its planning documents and gave incorrect advice, causing Mr X to have to change plans for the development of the land he purchased. The Council has accepted fault, offered a financial remedy and has carried out service improvements. Mr X says the Council’s remedy does not go far enough as he says the Council’s actions have cost him tens of thousands of pounds. However we consider that the Council has sufficiently remedied the injustice caused.
