Enforcement

Planning enforcement in Westminster is afforded  a high priority and comprises a very complex area. This is primarily because the Town and Country Planning Acts seek to strike a balance between the freedom of owners to use or alter their property as they wish, whilst at the same time safeguarding the amenities of their neighbours and conserving historic buildings and areas.

Reporting Complaints
If you would like us to investigate a possible breach of planning control please complete the Planning Enforcement Complaint form .


Enforcement Notices
Search planning enforcement notices issued by the Council, including access to copies of enforcement notices, in most cases.

The guide below provides the City Council's approach to Planning Enforcement.
