Having just found this excellent forum and also a plot of land near to my house in Milton Keynes, I am in need of advice about one of the conditions the local council has imposed on the Planning Permission that has been granted to the current owner of the plot. The plot is at the end of an unadopted road which leads to a large commercial property, the owners of which also own, and are responsible for the upkeep of, the road. The are several houses on the road already, the last one being built in the 1970s, although the plot I am wanting to buy used to have a large barn on it, belonging to the bungalow opposite. The condition states that before any house built on the plot is occupied a turning area has to be provided, apparently sufficiently large to allow a 7.5 metre truck, which will use a fair chunk of what will be the front garden. I understand this is calculated using a standard template. My question is - can the council insist on this condition for an unadopted road? I also notice from the approved plans that one visitor parking space has to be included, which the seller says is for the benefit of the whole road - is that right? I have also raised another topic about a small strip of land next to the site - adverse possession?
