| Have just looked on Ealing Council website and there is a section under Planning Enforcement - it states the following: How to report a suspected planning breach If you suspect a planning breach has occurred you should fill in the complaint form (word) and email or post it to the planning enforcement team. You will need to: provide your name and contact details as anonymous complaints will not be investigated provide as much detail as possible about the alleged breach. This should include the address of the property, dates the work began and details of the development - such as a conservatory extension to the rear of a house explain how the development affects the enjoyment of your property or the character of the area The planning enforcement teams service standards They will: treat your complaints or case confidentially log it and check whether planning permission has been granted for the development/use, or if they are already investigating the matter acknowledge your complaint in writing with a reference number and details of the investigating officer visit the site to gather information about the alleged breach write to you to let you know the final outcome of the case Have just copied out the basics for information purposes only (there is no mention of a helicopter!) How long the process takes is another matter. |
