To clarify, when read with the confirmation Decision, the correct reading of the Direction which has been confirmed and recommends that the Council proceeds to issue “notice” of the Direction with the slips duly clarified.
1) To approve clarification of the non-immediate Article 4 Direction (confirmed on 18th November 2022) withdrawing the specified permitted development right conferred by the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, for the conversion of dwelling-houses (Class C3) to Houses in Multiple Occupation (Class C4) in three outlined areas of the City.
2) To note that the Order, made on 16th November 2021 and confirmed on 18th November 2022, will now proceed to the “notice” stage in accordance with the law.
The Council deferred giving notice of the Order until legal advice was sought as to the impact of two drafting slips. That advice has confirmed the legal validity of the Order and this decision records that position, with explanations of the slips.
Not applicable.
