Overgrown or untidy gardens
Quite often
complaints relating to untidy gardens are referred to us.
Unfortunately, there is little that we can do to enforce the tidy up of
such gardens. However, in exceptional circumstances where
private land is in such a condition as to adversely affect the amenity
of an area then action may be possible under Section 215 of the Town
& Country Planning Act 1990. At the moment these types of
complaints are dealt with by our colleagues in Planning Enforcement.
