    Statement Closed after initial enquiries Other 12-May-2025

    Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s decision to remove a brick wall near the complainant’s home and erect a temporary metal fence. The Council confirmed the wall was removed because it was unsafe and dangerous. It confirms it is reconsidering whether a brick wall can be rebuilt.
