Maidstone BC v SoS Environment and Kent CC
Language: English Series: Property and Compensation Reports ; (1995) 69 PCR 1-12(12)Publication details: 1995Subject(s): Summary: QBD 28 July 1994. The applicant council (M) owned land formerly used as allotments and now required for a road improvement scheme. In 1990 the county council applied to M for a certificate of appropriate alternative development, contending that planning permission would not be granted for any development save that proposed. M issued a certificate stating that planning permission would have been granted for office, residential or hotel development. The county appealed against that certificate. The Inspector recommended that the certificate be confirmed but the SoS cancelled it, issuing a substitute which certified that planning permission would have been granted for car parking. M`s appeal was dismissed; competing needs for open space could amount to a valid planning objection to the hypothetical development.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Date due | Barcode | |
