Summary
The sub-division of agricultural land into small plots for
sale, usually on the internet, creates problems for communities
and planning control. This letter is to remind Chief Planning
Officers of potential remedies already available, and to
emphasise the need to act swiftly and pre-emptively where
possible.
Note: The above publication was issued by
our former department, the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister
(ODPM). ODPM became Communities and Local Government (DCLG) on
5 May 2006 - all references in the text to
ODPM now refer to Communities and Local Government.
