Rossendale Council's development committee heard the list of problems and planning breaches
A housing developer failed to carry-out vital checks before starting work at a Rossendale site where neighbours have experienced various problems for months, a council meeting has been told.
She said: "We are not opposed to the houses but residents want to reduce the problems. We have had this for 17 months. A big problem is that vehicles cannot get access at the same time. So there are large vehicles, some of them weighing 44 tonnes, waiting in the street."There also land stability issues and drainage. Water was running down the street and people say their gardens were flooded.
Mr Gee said: "I'm aware of the frustration through the year with this. My client is very aware of that. He apologies for any inconvenience. However, much of it has been beyond his control, such as serious concerns about safety of the slope at the back of the site, which has been dealt with urgently. WORK DONE WITHOUT PERMISSION Labour Coun Liz McInnes asked why work had started at the Highfield Park site before permission was granted?
A council planning report stated: "The land was disused and overgrown but work commenced unlawfully on the implementation of planning permission from 2019 without discharging the pre-commencement conditions. One of the houses is now substantially complete. On land stability, it stated: " The applicant commenced development without the site being fully-assessed to establish the stability of the site and the surrounding land. The applicant has now submitted details of a retaining wall and ground floor slab construction which the council’s land stability advisor considers satisfactory."
