All too frequently blatant disregard to Policies is exhibited by developers and the planners are reluctant to investiage these breaches.Even when wildlife and ecologial legislation is breached it is seldom that the planning department or the borough ecologist will take any heed of residents concerns.Once planning consent has been granted, the planning department appear to walk away from any contraventions of planning law and conditions placed on the planning consent.Thus any monitoring would appear to be non existant.

Development Management Plan includes no provisions to discontinue planning officers' cavalier disregard for neighbouring property Titles/boundaries; (contrary to HR Protocol 1, Article 1). Any site-boundary will do!
Typified by Planning Officer 10 May 2012; "With regard to the site boundary issue, you should be aware that where there are discrepancies between the plans and the information submitted in supporting documentation the Local Planning Authority will always take the red line shown on the submitted plans as the site's boundary. The reason being that these plans are required by national law".
Does National Law NOT require veracity? Judicial Review?

Development Management Plan has no provision for planners put on notice of encroachment to examine Titles to prevent innocent neighbours being subjected to unwarranted disputes imposing legal costs.
Planning Officer's mantra (20/06/2012); "In this case, when the application was submitted the Planning Agent signed a declaration confirming that the applicant is the owner of the site. On this basis, if you feel that the red line boundary encroaches onto land owned by <redacted> it is really a private matter between you and the applicant."
Deferring matter beyond HBC's purview is immoral; agent-provocateur; accessory; indefensible; and inflamatory,

Development Management Plan has no provision for HBC enforcement to pro-actively intervene to enforce control or prevent offences against ecology, wildlife, woodlands.
Presently, like Pilate washing hands, whatever safeguards and conditions written into planning permissions, offences are deemed to fall outside HBC's purview or remit;
e.g. 05/06/2012 unlawful felling of listed bat-roosts required an ecologist to be present. HBC exculpation typified by mantras;
"responsibility of the applicant"...
"if offences committed complain to Sussex Police WLO"... [WLO ignored evidence; sought HBC guidance].
Deferring abused ecology conditions as matters outside HBC's enforcement purview is obfuscation, toothless complicity in offences.

Refer to my 5343 proposing HBC enforcement to proactively intervene to control or prevent offences against ecology and wildlife.
BADGERS (active setts within 100m TN38 0SP site)
Frequent badger activity; denied by applicant's Ecology Survey "No activity on site"; accepted by HBC Ecologist, Planning Officer, Members consent.
Badger call-outs 1994-1997 included illegal night shoots in woodland (culls), present Ecologist was named to investigate, with Police.
In site-visits he identified badger hair, spoor; 2012 visit threw scat away (DNA) reporting NOT BADGERS.
In 2012 FOI request for 1994-97 evidence; denied involvement or knowledge; yet letters name him.
Typifies HBC's complicit purview's toothless enforcement!
