But worth doing, just to upset them!


Not half as much as it will upset the appellant if the appeal fails and
the
council, quite rightly, ask costs and get them!

Why "quite rightly"?

These people are jobsworths who abuse their position and restrict the
freedom of the very people who pay their salaries.

This is not to say that there does not need to be sensible planning
control to prevent monstrosities, but quite often these people in
planning departments exceed the intent of the legislation and behave
arbitrarily.

It would be worth the investment to put them through the wringer on
the hope that they are slapped down.

Are you going to do it, Andy?

Reminds me of belling the cat. I seem to be all nostalgic tonight ... but
not so much that I don't agree with Peter.
