Issue - meetings

Appeal decisions determined during September and October 2007.

The Committee noted the outcome of 29 appeal decisions determined by the Department for Communities and Local Government during September and October 2007 of which 12 were allowed and 17 were dismissed.  Enforcement appeals had been separated and listed at the end of the report as previously requested by the Committee. 

The Committee was asked to note that there was a mixture of decisions determined.  In particular 37 Gloucester Road N17, had been a public enquiry, dismissed and the Council awarded costs from the applicants due to unreasonable behaviour resulting in unnecessary expense to the Council.

RESOLVED

That the report be noted.
