Foelgastell man prosecuted

Carmarthenshire County Council has prosecuted Foelgastell man William Keri Evans for failing to comply with an Enforcement Notice.
The Notice was served under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, in respect of the unauthorised change of use of the land at Glyncoed, Foelgastell, from residential to a mixed use of residential and plant/tool hire business. He pleaded guilty at Ammanford Magistrates Court last week.
The court was told that the notice was served on October 30, 2007, requiring an end to the use of the land as a plant/tool hire business and the removal of all storage containers associated with the use from the land.
An appeal to the Planning Inspectorate was lodged against the Enforcement Notice which was later withdrawn by Evans. However the Enforcement Notice had not been complied with, as the storage containers remained on the land, thereby affecting the amenity of the residential area and in contravention of the requirements of the Notice.
Evans received a 10-month conditional discharge for the offence and was ordered to pay the costs of £1,002.10.
