Decision: To take no further action 
 

This decision is taken under delegated powers set out in
Paragraph 145 of the Officer Scheme of Delegation in the Council’s
constitution, which grants delegated authority to undertake all action
in order to regulate any actual, perceived or potential breach of any 

of the Town and Country Planning Legislation including: 

  

 

To determine whether or not to take and/or to cease action
whether because in his/her opinion the breach is trivial, there is
insufficient demonstrable harm and/or, it is not expedient to take /
continue to take action 

 

This authority has been delegated to me through the Local
Scheme of Nomination for the Executive Director for Place. 

 

Reasons for the decision

The unauthorised structure is an extension to an existing
industrial building on an industrial estate. The extension and land has been in
use for two years now and there have been no reports that the use is causing a
disturbance to neighbours. The use and building are acceptable in planning
policy terms and permission would be granted for them. 

Alternative options considered

Formal Action is not in the public interest as the
development accords with adopted policy and no reports have been received that
is causing any harm.
