When we find fault, we can recommend improvements to systems and processes where they haven’t worked properly, so that others do not suffer from these same problems in future. Common examples are policy changes; procedural reviews; and staff training. Service improvements from decisions are published for 5 years and those from reports are published for 10 years.

    Summary

    Mr X complained about the Council’s handling of the planning and enforcement process for a path serving an approved development near his home. He said as a result his privacy has been affected, and he may experience water overflow into his garden. We found fault in how the Council considered amended plans to increase the height and location of the path in early 2023 and how it communicated with him. The was no fault on other matters complained about. The Council will apologise and make a symbolic payment to acknowledge the impact Mr X has experienced.

    Service improvements

    The Council will remind officers in its planning enforcement team to consider each reported planning enforcement concern it receives on their own merits. This includes circumstances where an enforcement decision has been made for other neighbours affected by a development if the alleged concerns or impact are not the same.
