Overview
The complainant (Mr C) was aggrieved at the decision of Argyll and Bute Council (the Council) to grant planning consent for the demolition of an adjacent modern villa to allow for the development of land to the rear of his home for residential development. His complaint was restricted, however, to the Council's failure to take enforcement action in respect of breaches of development control.
Specific complaint and conclusion
The complaint which has been investigated is that the Council delayed unreasonably in taking action to enforce two conditions of a planning consent issued for the adjacent residential development (not upheld).
Redress and recommendations
The Ombudsman has no recommendations to make.
