The statutory criteria will govern everything from the type of development (if any) that can be carried out in the locality down to the size and appearance of anything permitted to be built. Contrary to what you say a landowner cannot do what he or she wants to do with their land.
It is likely that there would be an inquiry into any application by Ken for any proposed development. The public (locals and Leeds fans anywhere) would have a right to support or object the proposed development but there is normally a time limit for doing this - 21 days from the date that the application is publicised by the Council. Therefore, if Leeds fans want to support what Ken is proposing to do we should watch out for when the application is lodged and register support for it. This can normally be done online with the planning authority.It can also be done by post. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alec McQueen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2007 6:36 AM Subject: Re: [LU] Councils > John > Exactly, there are statutary rules that need to be met, but beyond that, > what right has the council to have any say whatever in what Ken builds?
