I tell you what, Ill get the moderators to remove this whole post & Ill end my membership, I really dont need snide smart arse responses thank you very much.

My original point was about fixing the PP, you lot pulled it away from that & kept banging on about planners or BC, it happened quite a while ago & Ive had to fish through lots of emails to get to the details. In the mean time Ive had people next door report me to the police & had 3 visits, & 2 calls from them, . health issues & dealing with a parent that has dementia, so Im a little distracted at the moment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Planning enforcement case reference: ########### I am writing to you from the planning enforcement team of Stratford on Avon District Council in relation to the above enforcement case. As per out phone conversation. It has been brought to our attention that works are taking place on the above property prior to the approval of planning permission, application reference; ########. Please be advised, enforcement action may not be taking while a planning application is under consideration, however, if works were to continue, you would be carrying this work out at your own risk, if planning permission is not granted then enforcement action will be taken and all works that have taken place must be regressed, and the land must be returned to it’s original state. I understand that you are conducting the works in the belief that planning permission has been granted. I can tell you that an official decision is yet to be made and a decision letter of approval/refusal has not been issued. Until a decision letter is served then planning permission is not considered to have been granted. Thank you for your understanding. Kind regards -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I had explained when he called me that I was not digging trenches, pouring concrete etc!!! i did write back to give a clearer picture of thing & also to say I fully intend to follow all rules in relation to this development etc etc...

I do realize BC and Planning are different, whether it makes sense or not I don't know, all I'm doing is saying whats happened. After the call from BC I had a email from them to reiterate what was said.

Don't forget, I have a person or people trying to give me grief over what I'm doing, one of these people is the head of the Parish Council, I suspect it was he who informed the BC, after all to most people I had PP & it was only a rubber stamping issue. People can not see what I'm doing very easily, the site of jumbo bags of aggregates etc parked on my trailer out side on the road gave the impression of foundations being poured?

I had Building Control call me, not the planners. Ive had neighbors inform B'C' 3 time before ( all unfounded) & after site visits, we know each other now, The B'C officer told me to stop my work. He was really good about it, having been messed about by the false issues raised by neighbors he was sympathetic to my situation. The retaining wall was specified in the plans, I had to crack on due to some movement & had to act. Pre-con's, I have to build a small section of stone wall for inspection. Thanks.

Uk, Yeah CIL is safe, but no commencement notice..

Re; fixing the PP within the 3 year period. Having been granted PP but before receiving all the paper work & written permission some one reported me for starting work with out the full PP. I had actually started work on building a retaining wall & whilst doing so I had a phone call from the Building Control telling me I don't have PP until I have all the paper work in hand. They were quite good about It & just said to stop work which is what I did. So my question is, have they confirmed the project is started & can I rely on their email which they sent to confirm our phone conversation. I really don't want to do thing else or spend any money at this time, I just want to put the whole thing on ice. Thanks for any comments! Ps, I had to do section of the retaining wall (50%) due to some movement of the land - as set out in the plans for the build.

I've just found out that the head of the parish council has been very busy, I've seen some emails from the parish council members, he has been twisting conversations Ive had with him, in fact you could say out right lies in an attempt to cause me problems.. Strange as I've never had any conflict with him, Its a safe bet that he informed the Building Control on the last occasion. I was going to ask to speak at the next PC meeting, to lodge a complaint but the Chairman is the only one that can grant permission for some one to speak.

Yep, CIL in place & confirmed, & I've written to BCO "cap in hand" to explain the situation & to apologize for anything that I've failed to get right. A bit of humble pie goes a long way..................

I've all the conditions for my self build house completed now & I'm ready to start. But before getting here, I had to save a wall from collapsing & some other things. I've had some one inform Building Control incorrectly, 3 times that I have stated the project. I would like to find out for certain who is doing this, as in the future I'm sure this false reporting will continue. This is along with my car being damaged, car tires slashed & other things. I've made a police complaint against a neighbour for racial harassment, would the council give all info they hold with a F'O' Information request? thanks

I would totally agree with this, but the trouble is these people have shown them selves to be beyond any reason they have a mind set that is not compatible with decent people

"If you push it back upright with brute force, you will likely just break the wall so when you remove the force it might all just fall over. Then who do you expect will be expected to pay to repair it? " I'm just amazed that some one can neglect their wall to the point that it collapse onto a neighbours land, & the owner of the collapsed wall can just sit back & not be forced, to do some thing about it. Either before or after. No other structures are close to this wall. Its a dry wall, no mortar between the joints, I've pushed my wall ( at the other side of the plot) at 3 points where it was bulging with a heavy vehicle....The thing is, now its leaning over onto my land at the top, is there no rights as the land owner that they are effectively crossing the boundary line onto my land, albeit by only inches. My neighbours have also had a new fence put up at one end, & their fence is over the boundary line onto my land by a few inches, no big deal but its just annoying.

Thanks for that, seems like a rough deal for me, they neglect their wall & Ill be paying to put it right ;-( ......

If i used some heavy equipment to push back the wall & it bulged up their garden, could they make a claim against me for damaging their lawn?
