What's inside the line?
Article Abstract:
It is sometimes difficult to decide if a building on the same site as a listed building is within its curtilage. The UK Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 Part I deals with the status of structures which lie within the curtilage of a listed building. They are considered to be part of the listed building. The act goes on to state work on listed buildings must be approved. Anyone not abiding by the act dealing with listed buildings may be open to prosecution. Several cases have been heard in the UK courts which seem to confirm a curtilage is a small area.

And justice for all?
Article Abstract:
It is estimated the cost of UK public inquiries for planning appeals is about one-third of all the money spent by the Planning Inspectorate on appeal cases. The government is considering changing the way public inquiries are funded, and charge the appellants. Homeowners or small companies are advised to use informal hearings to save costs. But informal hearings are not treated with the same attention as public inquiries yet can be as lengthy. The cost of a public inquiry, at around 2,000 pounds sterling per day, may stop developers taking disputed planning matters any further.

An end to highway robbery?
Article Abstract:
Property developers often waste time waiting for local planners to continue with the planning process even if the application is accepted at a planning inquiry. The unilateral undertaking under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 means that planning applications must be agreed to by local planning councils if no objections are sustained. Planning applications can also be held up if the highway authority choses not to represent itself. Legal implications are considered.
