The High Hedges (Appeals) (England) Regulations 2005

The High Hedges (Appeals) (England) Regulations 2005 - London TSO 2005 - SI 2005: 711 .

From 1 June 2005 a local authority in England has powers, under the Anti-social Behaviour Act 2003 Part 8, to deal with complaints about high hedges; which are having an adverse effect on a neighbour's enjoyment of his property. The local authority may serve remedial notices on hedge owners with the possibility of a fine of up to £1 000 for non-compliance. These regulations deal with the rights of appeal against a local authority's decisions under s68 (procedure for dealing with complaints); under s70 (withdrawal, waiver, or relaxation, of remedial notices); and against any remedial notices issued by the local authority under s69 of the Act. Any appeals must be made to the Secretary of State. A regulatory impact assessment of the effect this instrument will have on the costs of business is available on the DCLG website.
