The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development setting out the Enforcement Tracker which provided the
current status of enforcement cases that had had formal notices
served. It was noted that it was the
intention to report the Tracker to the Committee on a quarterly
basis, and it would be updated to reflect outcomes.
The
Development Manager advised the Committee that the Strategic
Planning, Sustainability and Transportation Committee would be
reviewing the current Enforcement Protocol, and that Members would
have input through workshop sessions.
The Officers were taking a proactive approach to breaches of
planning control, having regard to the sensitivity of the
issues.
The
Committee welcomed the introduction of the Enforcement Tracker
report, and wished to place on record their support and thanks for
the work being undertaken by the Planning Enforcement
Team. It was suggested, and agreed,
that the Communications Team be asked to publicise the successful
outcomes of enforcement action.
RESOLVED:
1. That the report
be noted.
2. That the
Planning Enforcement Team be thanked for their work in dealing with
breaches of planning control.
3. That the
Communications Team be asked to publicise the successful outcomes
of enforcement action.
