Derelict Sites

The Council is required by law to establish and maintain a Register of Derelict sites. All reports of Dereliction are investigated and Notices of Intention to enter the site on the Register are served on the owners / occupiers of the site in question.

The Council considers any written representations made in response to the Notice before deciding whether to enter the site on the Register. The Council can also serve Notices on owners or occupiers of derelict sites specifying measures to be taken to prevent land from becoming or continuing to be a Derelict site.
