Summary
Mr C raised a number of issues about the council's handling of two planning applications. He said that the planning report contained inaccuracies and had not dealt with issues of window distances, subdivision of land and loss of amenity. He also said that archaeological and tree survey requirements were not undertaken. Mr C also raised concerns about the council's handling of enforcement matters at the site.
After taking independent advice from one of our planning advisers we did not uphold Mr C's complaints. We were satisfied that, based on the available evidence, the council's actions were reasonable and they had dealt with the applications properly. We were also satisfied that the council's position that there were no archaeological issues in this case was reasonable and we found no evidence of fault in relation to the council's decision that there was no need for a tree survey. Finally, we were satisfied that the action the council took in dealing with the enforcement matters raised by Mr C was reasonable.
