Neighbour not displaying yellow site notice for planning app

[M33KBT]

Hi

My neighbour has a planning application in progress with a target date for decision of this Friday. We were formally notified as immediate residents but since the application was registered the plans were not available to view on the council site for over a week due to a 'technical issue' and we've just realised there has been no yellow site notice displayed. Therefore the number of local people aware of the plan is very limited and even if they did take a look at the web site there have been no plans available for a considerable period of time.

What are the consequences of not displaying the yellow notice ?

Have we got grounds to request an extension to the consultation period ?

Cheers

your neighbour hasn't got to do anything. It's for the council to do.

This.

In my area, there's no need to put up the sign at all.

No consequences as its not the neighbours problem.

Are you planning to object to the application?

None , it is not a statutory requirement to display the notice .

You could try to ask for an extension if you want to be disruptive , but the planners would have notified the immediate neighbors, the plans only need to be up for the 21 day period .

If anybody was that worried about what was going on , they would have dragged their sorry arse to the council offices to have a look.

Hmm, I thought it was a statutory requirement to display a public notice.

It's entirely possible the neighbor has removed it. If you're concerned, phone the planning dept. I've had numerous discussions with mine over late and poorly located notices on nearby developments. They've had to extend the consultation period both times because of it.

There was no notice put up for my demolision and rebuild, yet a house down the the road doing the same thing did have a sign up.
But as noted above, it's the councils job to put them up - not the applicant.
