The Area Team Leader outlined the contents of the report stating that the case had been the subject of a previous report and that the committee had resolved to issue an enforcement notice for the unauthorised change of use for business and domestic storage. Following discussions with the Legal Services Manager it was now proposed to issue a Section 215 Notice .

 

RESOLVED that the Legal Services Manager be given delegated authority to take all such steps and action necessary to secure the improvement of the appearance of the land including the issue of a Section 215 (Untidy Site ) Notice and prosecution and/or Direct Action in the event of non-compliance with the notice.
