Tewkesbury Borough Council is asking for feedback on how it enforces planning regulations.

The enforcement plan has been drafted and explains the council’s approach, outlines its powers and details the ways in which planning breaches can be reported. The plan also summarises what can be expected of the council throughout the enforcement process. Officers are now asking for the public’s view on the enforcement plan and are keen to hear suggestions about how the service should operate and how improvements could be made.
