Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning applications 10-Sep-2025

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council’s handling of planning matters at a site next to where the complainant lived.

Runnymede Borough Council (25 007 008)

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning applications 10-Sep-2025

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the Council refusing to take planning enforcement action against an outbuilding, which was not built in accordance with the approved plans. There is insufficient evidence of fault in the way the Council reached its decision on the enforcement case, and an investigation is unlikely to establish whether a council officer was unprofessional during a site visit.
