6 week limit in CA

[Willowboy]

Hi all,

Some basic dumbarse questions I hope you can help me with:

Am I right in believing that the only recourse a LA can have to stop treework being carried in a Conservation Area is to put on a TPO before the end of 6 weeks after receiving a notice of intent describing the work?  

Or do they have other powers to stop work?

Also, if a LA requests clarification or further info, does the 6 weeks period start again?

Yes, no, probably I would say.

 

However, if they can get you to formally withdraw your Sect. 211 notice and reissue with more acceptable proposals that can sometimes / occasionally be an option.

No 'other powers' under Planning legislation unless perhaps a condition prevails...unlikely generally.

If they, then LPA, consider your Sect. 211 notice to be vague / ambiguous they shouldn't register it in the first instance so the 6 weeks time period doesn't start running.

 

I'm sure other will clarify further...hopefully not disagree tho unless a dumbarse reply  :/  

 

Cheers.

Paul

Sounds like what I was thinking.  Thanks for that, Paul.
