Just wondering if anyone could offer any help or advice regarding a major planning breach.
The council has been contacted numerous times to report it to both the Planning and the Enforcement Team and contacted local MPs (one of whom has been very helpful) but any other help would be much appreciated.
Brief details of the breach are that a house which was refused planning has been built (to a different and less likely to be approved spec to the plans which were rejected). A wind turbine which has never been subject to a planning application has been put up & is in operation. The Council have put an enforcement notice on the owner/applicant to cease all work but he now has furniture being delivered so looks like people will be moving in. Doubtful that waste water system has been registered with SEPA and the building is unlikely to have been assessed with regards to council tax & water charges.
If anyone has any experience of what more can be done in these circumstances or who might be able to help, it'd be really appreciated. Thank you.
