Planning Enforcements

The Local Planning Authority

The Local Planning Authority (LPA) for the Staveley & Copgrove parish is Harrogate Borough Council (HBC). LPAs have responsibility for taking whatever enforcement action may be necessary, in the public interest, in their administrative areas with regard to breaches of planning control.

Planning Breach

A breach of planning control is defined in section 171A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 as:

  • the carrying out of development without the required planning permission; or
  • failing to comply with any condition or limitation subject to which planning permission has been granted.

The Parish Council has no statutory responsibility in this matter but is able, as is any individual resident, to bring perceived breaches of planning control to the attention of the LPA. The LPA will investigate and decide whether a breach has occurred and if necessary, carry out enforcement.

Pending Enforcements

The map below shows the location of enforcement cases that have been raised with the LPA for our parish that are awaiting a decision. Select a map marker to see the enforcement case summary in a popup window.

How do I use the map?

This map is interactive. You can move and re-scale it using the various controls within the viewport.

Click/tap the map and drag to move the map around within the viewport as required.

Zoom in and out using the +- controls in the top left, pinch in/out or roll the mouse wheel when pointing within the map area.

Click/tap a marker, line or shape for further information in a popup window. If any marker, line or shape has an image, those images are displayed in a gallery at the bottom of the map. Select an image from the gallery and its marker will popup to indicate its location. The gallery is only displayed when one or more marker, line or shape with an image is within the map viewport.

Select the four corners icon in the top left to expand the map to full screen.

Select the tiles icon in the top right to select a different base map from the popup list. There are a number of base map options available.

Some maps also have layer switches that allow you to show or hide markers, lines or shapes. If a map has this feature, the layers and their switches are listed below the base maps. This feature enables markers, lines and shapes to be individually removed to make a map more readable.

Select the target icon in the bottom right to locate yourself with a marker. This feature will only work if your device has a GPS service and that service is currently active.

Can I download map data?

Yes. Select Details in the map header. A panel will overlay the right side of the map viewport, containing a file format drop-down list and a Download link. Select the required file format from the drop-down list and select the Download link. You will be prompted as to what you wish to do with the file.

The file will contain all of the waypoints for all of the currently visible markers, lines and shapes. You can control which markers, lines and shapes to include in the download file by switching the respective layers on or off. Select the tiles icon in the top right of the map viewport (close this panel first) to see the layers available below the list of base maps.

Whilst the panel is open, select More Details to display the map on a separate page. There is also an option to download map data on this page.

Close the panel by selecting the X in the top left corner of the panel.

The List Length

The planning enforcements list is initially displayed with the first 10 entries. The Show Entries drop-down selection box above the list may be used to show more (or less) entries. The number of entries currently shown and the total number of entries in the list is displayed below the list.

Pagination

The Previous and Next buttons below the list may be used to navigate between the list pages if not all the entries are shown.

Sorting

The enforcements are listed in descending Date order, i.e. most recent first. The list order cannot be reversed.
