Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council (20 003 006)
Statement Upheld Planning advice 10-May-2021
Summary: Mr X complained about the Council giving incorrect information about his liability to pay the Community Infrastructure Levy. Mr X says because of this, he lost the opportunity to revise his plans and owed the Council a significant sum of money. We find the Council was at fault. While this caused Mr X an injustice, we cannot say this was caused by the actions of the Council alone. In recognition there was also fault by a third-party agent, the Council agreed to reduce the amount payable by Mr X by half and cancel late payment penalties.

Brentwood Borough Council (20 011 636)
Statement Closed after initial enquiries Planning advice 13-Apr-2021
Summary: We will not investigate Ms X’s complaint about how the Council decided her first planning application. Ms X was aware of her Planning Inspectorate appeal and could have used it to obtain the permission she sought. We cannot investigate Ms X’s complaint about the Council’s planning process when deciding her second application for the same property. Ms X has used her Planning Inspectorate appeal right, which takes the matter outside our jurisdiction.
