Making your Enforcement Appeal
4. Is anyone else involved?
4.1 Yes. Other people who have an interest in your appeal, for example environmental groups or neighbours, are called ‘interested people’. They have a chance to tell us what they think about your enforcement appeal.
How will other parties find out about the appeal?
4.2 We ask the LPA to write to anyone who lives in nearby property and others who they think are affected by your appeal. We ask the LPA to let interested people know the procedures we will use to decide the appeal and the timetable for receiving their comments.
4.3 We will send copies of comments we receive from interested people to you and the LPA.
4.4 For appeals that we are deciding by inquiry or hearing, the LPA will also tell interested people about the arrangements and invite them to come. They can also inspect, at the Council's offices, the grounds of appeal and the LPA's written evidence supporting their enforcement notice.
4.5 If there is going to be an inquiry, you must put a notice that we will send you on the appeal site. The LPA may also have to put up notices in public places and tell the local papers.
4.6 Before we take the views of interested people into account, we will give you and the LPA a chance to see the comments they have made and give us your views.
