Mr. M. Hussain.

Had another look at this link, and I find that the officer has noted at the start of the report "Councillor Ayub requested that this application be considered by the planning committee"
Councillor Ayub is a member of the planning committee,is his request not a little naughty, should he not declaire an interest as and when the application is discussed in planning committee and leave the room. :eek:

I did puzzle about that one, Park, as to if he had some sort of interest ... just thought he may have been trying to do his best for one of his constituents. Wonder which way he voted though.

I think they should make them remove the work they have done before the planning application is decided on. I think it is wrong for a builder to start without it as they know they need it. Stick them with a big fine so they will wait next time.

As stated previous, he should have declaired an interest and left the meeting, but you put it very well "one of his constituents" lol :alright:

The planning lot at the Council appear to have no real power. Why are they not knocking on the site formans door and telling him to stop work as they have no planning permission to be working?

That is true, they add conditions to planning permissions granted, conditions designed to protect residents from noise, pollution, and extended working hours. Then make excuses as to why they do not enforce those conditions :rolleyes:

Are any of our Councillor members on the planning committee?
If so maybe they can explain how a building delvelopment like this can start without planning permission and why it has not been shut down yet.

Councillor M Haworth is vice chair, Councillor B Roberts, Councillor D Hayes are all members of the planning committee, if they are also members of accy web may be they could explain why the development is being allowed to carry on prior to planning permission being given ;)

So what will be a no then.

The Councillors are only on the committe though, we must have enforcement officers. Is it not there job to make sure this sort of thing does not happen?

I think its the technical officers of the council that prepare reports for the planning committee that report will contain details of the application and reasons it should be either accepted or refused, however the planning committee do not always vote as per the report recommendation as has happened in the past, sometimes resulting in an appeal by the applicant. Yes HBC does have an "enforcement officer"...........over worked by all accounts but he/she has been a busy bee looking at the list attached.

Don't think that is quite correct park, a councillor only has to declare an interest if he has involvement with the said application or with the applicant, can't see anything wrong with a constituent lobbying a councillor with regards to planning no more than contacting him/her with regards to say their dust bin not being emptied, so long as no sort of inducement is offered
