FEBRUARY 2024 UPDATE 
There was submitted a report by the Strategic Lead – Economy, Development

Programme to Scottish Ministers. 
6. RESPONSE TO WATER, WASTEWATER & DRAINAGE POLICY
CONSULTATION 
There was submitted a report by Strategic Lead – Environment &
Infrastructure (24/52) seeking comments and subsequent approval to the draft
response to the Scottish Government’s consultation on water, wastewater and
drainage. 
Resolved:
The Executive Director (Communities) be instructed to submit the Council’s
response, as set out at Appendix A to Report 24/52, incorporating the additional
comments made by members as detailed below. 
(i) Councillor W Robertson commented that there was very little mention in the
response to the issues Scotland is currently facing with Scottish Water
dumping raw sewage into our watercourses and lochs during periods of heavy
rain and requested that this Council’s concerns about the activities of Scottish
Water abetted by SEPA allowing raw sewage to be dumped in our waterways
be included in the consultation response.
(ii) Bailie Williamson referred to Question 29 and commented it would be useful
to include having more information and guidance available to users of private
water supplies about protecting their supply and the integrity of their supply.
(iii) Councillor H Anderson referred to Question 20 and commented on Scottish
Water not currently being required to announce publicly if sewage is
discharged into watercourses and queried whether this was something that
could be included in the consultation response. 
(iv) Councillor C Stewart also referred to Question 20 and requested an additional
bullet point be added to the consultation response as follows:
“A legal duty should be placed on SEPA around flood risk to update 0.5% 
(1 in 200-year) flood event risk areas and frequency, taking into account
wherever possible the benefit of local knowledge, since local authorities rely
on SEPA flood risk maps when considering (particularly major) planning
applications.  In the interim, to permit local authorities to place greater weight
on local knowledge in the planning process where that is at odds with SEPA
flood risk assessments”.

PLANNING ENFORCEMENT CHARTER REVIEW 
Report by Strategic Lead - Economy, Development & Planning
(Report No. 24/159) 
1. PURPOSE 
1.1 This report seeks approval of an updated version of the Council’s Planning
Enforcement Charter, following review, as required by The Town and Country
Planning (Scotland) Act 1997. 
2. RECOMMENDATIONS 
2.1 It is recommended that Committee: 
• Approves the recommended update to the Council’s Planning
Enforcement Charter 
3. STRUCTURE OF REPORT 
3.1 This report is structured over the following sections: 
• Section 4: Background/Main Issues 
• Section 5: Proposals 
• Section 6: Conclusion 
• Appendices 
4. BACKGROUND / MAIN ISSUES 
4.1 The Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 (as amended) places a
statutory requirement for Planning Authorities to prepare and publish a
Planning Enforcement Charter. The Act specifically requires Charters to set
out: 
• A statement of the Authority’s policies as regards their taking of
enforcement action;
• An account of how members of the public can bring any ostensible
breach of planning control to the attention of the Authority;
• How to complain about the way in which the Authority takes enforcement
action; and
• The procedures for dealing with any such complaint. 
4
Page 9 of 108

Page 10

4.2 Members are reminded that while there is no duty on the Planning Authority to
pursue planning enforcement action, there is a requirement for Planning
Authorities to review, update and publish a new Charter whenever they think it
is appropriate to do so but no later than two years after last being published.
The Council adopted the latest Planning Enforcement Charter on 27th January
2021. As it is now beyond the required 2-year period for publication of a
revised charter, it is important that an updated Planning Enforcement Charter
is agreed as expediently as possible. The delay was primarily due to staff
resourcing issues within the planning enforcement team at the time and
resulted in a red marker from the Scottish Government in the 2022/23
Planning Performance Framework. 
4.3 The Planning Enforcement Charter is key to clarifying the Council’s role
within, and approach to, planning enforcement; both to stakeholders who
report suspected breaches of planning control and to those who have an
interest in the site subject of the possible breaches. Since the adoption of the
latest Charter, officers have gained useful experience in delivering its
objectives. This experience, and feedback from stakeholders during the
consideration of enforcement cases, has been used to examine the
effectiveness of the Charter and identify areas for improvement.
Benchmarking and reviewing of other Planning Authorities’ Charters was also
undertaken. 
5. PROPOSALS 
Charter Review 
5.1 The previous Charter identifies the priority areas for planning enforcement
within Perth and Kinross, informed through staff discussions and a
stakeholder engagement process. Officers consider that the key priorities for,
and the approach to, planning enforcement as expressed through the existing
Charter remain appropriate, proportionate and reflective of Council objectives. 
5.2 Accordingly, it is recommended that the proposed ‘Priorities for Planning
Enforcement’ in the 2024 Charter remain largely unchanged. However, since
the adoption of the last Charter the economy, businesses and individuals
have had to adapt to manage the impacts of the cost-of-living crisis. It is
therefore proposed to expand one of the existing priorities to underline the
proportionate use of action and to act sensitively to exceptional
circumstances. This follows from a similar approach taken in the 2021 Charter
in recognising the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. This general
principle is supported by the Scottish Government’s Circular 10/2009:
Planning Enforcement which recognises the need to act sensitively in respect
of impacts on small businesses when taking enforcement action. 
Page 10 of 108

Page 11

5.3 The proposed 2024 Charter is attached at Appendix 1. The main changes in
the updated charter are highlighted with the use of italics. These seek to: 
• Recognise the impact of the cost-of-living crisis;
• Clarify how it will be used in support of the Council’s corporate priorities;
• Reflect Development Plan policy objectives;
• Reflect Scottish Government guidance in practice; and
• Set out how and when proportionate enforcement action will be taken
(ie. where evidenced planning harm warrants it). 
5.4 The document provides a summary and overarching message about the
approach to enforcement as well as the priorities. It also provides details on
how to report a suspected breach of planning control and where further, more
detailed, guidance on planning enforcement can be found. Specifically, it
highlights the key role planning stakeholders can play and how they are
engaged in the process. 
5.5 Consisitent with the 2021 Charter, the updated Charter continues to guide
stakeholders chronologically through the planning enforcement process, with
a flow chart of the key stages:   
• Identifying what constitutes a breach of planning control;
• How to report suspected breaches to the Council;
• Explaining possible informal and formal action that could be taken by the
Planning Authority;
• The process for investigating report breaches; and,
• How the enforcement team will act on breaches to secure compliance 
Service Improvements 
5.6 Since the adoption of the last Charter, the Council now displays active
enforcement cases on the Public Access planning portal. This allows
members of the public and interested parties to view details of cases more
readily, as well as understanding actions taken. The 2024 Charter is therefore
updated to reference enforcement cases now being on Public Access. Perth &
Kinross Council was one of the first Planning Authorities in Scotland to display
enforcement cases on Public Access, demonstrating a commitment to
effective communication through the customer journey. 
5.7 As with the previous version of the Charter, following Committee approval, a
Plain English document suitable for publication will be produced. The
publication will be in e-booklet form available to download from the Council’s
website. In the interests of environmental sustainability, it is not proposed to
print any hard copies of the Planning Enforcement Charter. 
Page 11 of 108

Page 12

Future Review Process 
5.8 As noted, the Planning Authority is required to review, update and
publish a new Charter when necessary, and no later than every two years.
Should the 2024 Charter recommendation be agreed by Committee and
subsequently adopted, the intention would be for an updated Charter to be
presented to Committee in 2026. 
6. CONCLUSION   
6.1 The revised Planning Enforcement Charter builds on the established
principles of the Council’s approach to, and priorities for, planning
enforcement. Several refinements and clarifications have been made to the
revised Charter to make the process clearer for all planning stakeholders. The
publication of the revised Charter will set out these updated principles and
represent a material consideration for officers in the handling for all planning
enforcement matters. 
6.2 It is recommended that Committee approves the update to the Council’s
Planning Enforcement Charter.

1.1 No implications. 
Corporate Plan 
1.2 This report supports the following objectives within the new Corporate Plan: 
(i) People and businesses are increasingly able to prosper in a local 
economy which support low carbon ambitions and offers opportunities  
for all. 
2. Resource Implications 
Financial 
2.1 No implications.

2.2 No implications. 
Page 13 of 108

Page 14

Asset Management (land, property, IT) 
2.3 No implications. 
3. Assessments 
Equality Impact Assessment 
3.1 Under the Equality Act 2010, the Council is required to eliminate
discrimination, advance equality of opportunity, and foster good relations
between equality groups.  Carrying out Equality Impact Assessments for plans
and policies allows the Council to demonstrate that it is meeting these duties.
As the Planning Enforcement Charter is a revised document, there is no
requirement for further Equality Impact Assessments to be undertaken as it is
not relevant. 
Strategic Environmental Assessment 
3.2 The Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Act 2005 places a duty on the
Council to identify and assess the environmental consequences of its
proposals. However, no action is required as the Act does not apply to the
matters presented in this report.   
Sustainability   
3.3 Under the provisions of the Local Government in Scotland Act 2003 the
Council has to discharge its duties in a way which contributes to the
achievement of sustainable development.   Under the Climate Change
(Scotland) Act 2009 the Council also has a duty relating to climate change
and, in exercising its functions must act: 
• in the way best calculated to delivery of the Act’s emissions reduction
targets;
• in the way best calculated to deliver any statutory adaptation
programmes; and
• in a way that it considers most sustainable. 
The Planning Enforcement Charter considers how best to deal with breaches
of planning control, and as such does not directly impact sustainable
development. However, the planning process itself is closely linked with
sustainable development and there are relevant policies within the Perth &
Kinross Local Development Plan 2 (2019) and National Planning Framework
4 to control this. 
Legal and Governance 
3.4 No implications. 
Page 14 of 108

Page 15

Risk 
3.5 No implications. 
4. Consultation 
Internal 
4.1 The Planning Enforcement Team were consulted on the proposal due to their
role in implementing the previous charter. The experience the staff obtained
from implementing the previous charter is therefore an important
consideration for the revised charter. All staff in the Planning Enforcement
Team are in agreement with the content proposed. 
External 
4.2 No external consultations required. 
5. Communication 
5.1 As with the previous version of the Charter, following Committee approval, a
Plain English document suitable for publication will be produced. The
publication will be in e-booklet form available to download from the Council’s
website. In the interests of environmental sustainability, it is not proposed to
print any hard copies of the Planning Enforcement Charter. The Council’s
social media platforms will be used to advertise the publication of the new
Charter. Staff members will also be promoting the new document where
relevant through correspondence. 
2. BACKGROUND PAPERS  
2.1 There are no other background papers relevant to the revised charter.

Foreword
Development within Perth and Kinross contributes towards the Council’s
objectives and priorities for the area, as expressed through our
Corporate Plan 2018-2022. 2022/23-2027/28. Planning Enforcement
plays an important role to uphold this contribution and to maintain public
confidence in the planning system, by ensuring that the intended
benefits of development are realised and our natural and built
assets are protected.
This Charter sets out Perth & Kinross Council’s approach, as Planning
Authority, to planning enforcement; which places the public and all
stakeholders in the planning system at the core of what we do. We
therefore set out what we can and cannot do, explain the processes
involved and make a commitment on the level of service we aim to
provide. We value public input in this process and, as such, we
endeavour to make the reporting of possible breaches of, and
engagement within the planning system, by the public accessible to all.

Page 20

This Charter explains the role of the Council and how enforcement
process works and sets out:
• the Council’s role and policy on taking Planning Enforcement Action,
including our priorities and the service standards you as a customer
(both those who report breaches or who are being investigated) can
expect;
• how customers can bring any breach of planning control to the
attention of the Council;
• explains what happens at each stage of what can sometimes be a
lengthy process; and
• how any complaint about the Council taking enforcement action can be
submitted and how it will be dealt with.
The Planning Enforcement Service
Planning permission is required for most forms of development unless it
is classed as ‘permitted development’. When development or work is
undertaken without permission, or not in accordance with an approved
permission or consent, discretionary powers are available to the Council
to investigate and take enforcement action, when it is in the public
interest to do so. It is for the Council to decide whether to take
enforcement action, based on the significance of the breach and
any impacts or planning harm.
It is the role of the Planning Enforcement team to carry out these duties. A
comprehensive guide to Planning Enforcement can be found in the
Scottish Government’s Circular 10/2009.
This Charter outlines how the planning enforcement system operates
and what can be expected of the service provided by the Council.
Planning Enforcement Charters are a statutory requirement for
Planning Authorities to regularly maintain and review when needed,
but to at least review every two years.
We continually monitor the implementation of the Charter to ensure that
standards are being met and priorities are being addressed. As part of
this review process, we publish an Annual Planning Enforcement
Report on our performance. This Charter reflects this review
process since our last charter was published in January 2021.
4 Perth & Kinross Council Ɩ Planning Enforcement Charter Ɩ 2021 Page 20 of 108

Page 21

Our Planning Enforcement team undertake focused monitoring,
particularly of major or significant developments to ensure compliance
with conditions and legal agreements associated with planning
permissions. 
When a monitoring record is opened, or when a justified complaint about
a breach of planning control is received these will appear online on our
PublicAccess system. This allows the public and interested parties to
review basic information and any significant updates. However, the
online case will never disclose who the complainant is. 
Ultimately, we seek to ensure that effective action is taken against breaches of
planning control, particularly where these have significant adverse impacts on
the environment or on communities. We also seek to update relevant parties
in a timeous manner. Accordingly, we set out our Priorities for Planning
Enforcement overleaf.
Our Approach to Planning Enforcement
Perth & Kinross Council’s approach to planning enforcement is not to
punish but to come to a conclusion on how to progress, wherever possible
using negotiation in the first instance. If it is considered that the issue must
be addressed, planning permission is required, and that it is not
proportionate to advise the property owner that they should seek that
permission or they do not exercise the right to make an application, then
formal action may be taken.. As a discretionary power, however, the
Council needs to consider in each case if enforcement action is justified
and whether or not to take action. It is important to clarify that the Council is
not required to take any particular action and may decide, in some cases,
that not acting is justified and proportionate. The Council will however make
decisions which: 
• Accord with the Council’s corporate priorities;
• Reflect Development Plan policy objectives;
• Reflect Scottish Government guidance; and,
• Recognise the Cost of Living Crisis. 
We will produce a Closing Report at the end of investigations explaining our
decision reasoning.
Scottish Government guidance on the use of enforcement powers is
provided in Circular 10/2009 ‘Planning Enforcement’. This guidance
explains, among other matters, that Council’s should not take
enforcement action just to address a breach of planning control, if the
development is otherwise acceptable in planning terms and taking a
sensitive to the impact of enforcement action on small businesses. The
primary aim for seeking retrospective planning consent is normally to
secure ongoing controls through the imposition of planning conditions.

especially on sensitive or protected environments.
Breach Reported
• Provide as much information
and details as possible.
• Describe the harm/impacts.
• Provide your contact details.
Matters of pedestrian and traffic safety.
Significant detrimental impacts on residential amenity.
Significant detrimental effects on public visual amenity.
Significant breaches of condition or the terms of a legal agreement in respect of a
major development or development where there is a significant level of
community interest.
Investigation
• Is it a planning matter?
• Is it a breach?
• Information gathering.
• Negotiation and resolution.

Reporting a Breach of Planning Control
When a breach of planning control is received or identified, there
are two decisions for the Planning Enforcement team:
• whether a breach of planning control has taken place; and
• if a breach has occurred, whether it is expedient to take any
enforcement action.
As advised previously, the decision of whether to act is at the discretion
of the Council and is a matter of judgement, having regard to planning
facts and circumstances of the case. Any action taken must be in the
wider context and be proportionate to the impact.
If you believe work or development being carried out is a breach of
planning control, you can submit this to us through our interactive Breach
of Planning Control Report Form. Alternatively, you can contact our
Customer Service Centre : 01738 475000 or email XXXXXXXX. All
reports are handled confidentially.
When reporting a breach, you should:
• provide your contact details (preferably an email address);
• provide or describe the address/location;
• explain the nature and extent of the development/works;
• state when the development/work started or was completed;
• detail the owner and/or who might be undertaking the works;
• list any relevant planning permissions;
• provide photographs of the development/works; and
• provide any other information you consider relevant (such as
dimensions, hours of any activities, online information like business
websites etc).
Breaches of Planning Control
Planning breaches include:
• work being carried out which requires planning permission or a related
consent;
• an unauthorised change of use;
• failure to comply with conditions attached to a permission or consent;
and
• departures from drawings or documents approved as part of a
planning permission or other consent.
We do undertake proactive monitoring of approved developments;
however, it is not possible, to monitor every development.
Consequently, the public play an extremely important role in alerting the
Council to, and providing information on, any possible breaches, whether or
not that development has planning permission.
Possible or known breaches are often identified by the public when
purchasing a property, through the conveyancing process, via Property
Enquiry Certificates which provide information on any planning notices
that affect the property or land. The sales process is often a good
opportunity to remedy existing breaches between the seller, buyer and
the Council. Unresolved breaches of planning control can hinder or stop
the sale, so the Council encourages all property owners to remedy
breaches, even where it has decided that PKC will not take formal
enforcement action.
You can check to see what needs planning permission on our
website. You can also see if the developer already has planning
permission and/or other consents in place, as
well as any conditions that are
attached to these, by using
our Online Planning System.

Trees
Under S171 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland)
Act 1997, it is an offence to carry out works to trees
subject to statutory protection that results in their uprooting,
felling, lopping or wilful destruction, without the prior consent
of the planning authority.
Formal action can be taken against persons who have
carried out unauthorised works to trees covered by a Tree
Preservation Order (TPO) or a tree(s) being within a
Conservation Area. Where protected trees have been
removed or destroyed this can see a Tree Replacement
Notice served requiring new tree planting. In certain cases,
offences reported to the Procurator Fiscal and, if successful,
can result in fines up to £20,000.
Trees - Other Controls
In addition to planning controls, you may need a Felling
Permission from Scottish Forestry. Further guidance on this
process, and details of works exempt from needing approval,
can be found at:
https://forestry.gov.scot/support-regulations/ felling-
permissions
Other Enforcement Controls
Other planning enforcement related matters can be reported to us,
through our Breach of Planning Control Report Form, so we can investigate
whether a breach or offence has taken place. These include:
Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas
The enforcement rules that apply to Listed Buildings,
demolitions and works in a Conservation Areas are set
out in the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation
Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 and associated regulations.
Unauthorised works can lead to a Listed Building
Enforcement Notice being served and such unauthorised work can
constitute a criminal offence, which could result in a £50,000
fine and/or a custodial sentence of up to 6 months.
Advertisements
Different procedures again apply when compared to
development. Adverts are regulated through the Town and
Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (Scotland)
Regulations 1984. These controls relate to the form and
siting of adverts only and we have the ability to serve 
Advertisement Enforcement Notices. The actual content of
an advertisement is not covered by planning control and
any complaints about this should be made to:

Matters That Cannot Be Considered by the
Enforcement Team
Non-Planning Matters
Where an enquiry relates to non-planning matters, these cannot be
investigated or addressed through Planning Enforcement. Issues
which must be addressed by the individuals involved include neighbour
disputes or civil issues such as:
High Hedges
The Council’s enforcement powers include the ability to
serve a High Hedge Notice under the High Hedges
(Scotland) Act 2013. This allows a resident whose amenity
is severely affected by a high hedge to formally apply
to the Council to have a notice served on the ‘hedge’ owner
to remove or reduce the adverse impact of the high hedge.
The owner has the right to appeal any Notice, as does the
applicant where a notice is not served. Non-compliance with
a Notice can see PKC undertake works directly.
Further information on our approach and remit for High
Hedges can be found on our website.
NOTE: High Hedges applications will be determined in
accordance with their own statutory process and
timescales, and, as such the Service Standards set out
within this Charter do not apply.
• the ownership of land: if someone has undertaken development
on your land, we can only consider the requirement of planning
permission and need for enforcement action. If formal action is to
be taken, the planning authority is required to serve an enforcement
notice on the owner of the land (i.e. yourself), as well as other
interested parties. For this reason, you should seek your own legal
advice on how best to address the issue; or
• connection to utility services: when applying for planning
permission, developers are required to confirm to the
planning authority what water or sewerage connections are
required for the proposed development. However, provision of these
services is a civil matter and/or a matter for any statutory undertaker
to approve any such connections and investigate any associated
iconserns. If your enquiry relates to another function of the Council, we will direct
this to the appropriate department. If unauthorised works or development
are being undertaken on a council owned property, you should report
these works to the relevant department such as housing, education or
estates in the first instance.

Initial Investigations
Following registration, an Enforcement Officer may visit the site to
investigate. The timescales for this will depend on factors such as
the type and significance of the issue. The Council has legal powers
to enter land or property in order to identify if a breach of planning control
has taken place. The same powers are available throughout the process
for the purposes of investigation or assessing compliance with any
enforcement notices served (see ‘Resolving Cases’ overleaf).
Investigating Possible Breaches of Planning
Control
The Council will always treat information about the identity of people who
report breaches to us in confidence and will only disclose it when
required to do so by law.
We do encourage you to provide your name and contact details, as we
may require further information from you as the investigation
progresses or to understand the impacts of the breach and how it
affects you. This also allows us to keep you informed of
progress and the outcome of our investigations.
Where an anonymous observation is received, we reserve the right to
choose not to investigate. Where it relates to one of our priority areas,
or it is judged to be in the public interest, we are more likely to
investigate breaches that have been reported anonymously.
Service Standard - 2
Where a site visit is required we will undertake this within 15 working days
from registration of a case, unless further actions are required (see below).
Registration of Your Observation
When we receive an observation, we first check that it includes all the
information we need for an enforcement case to be investigated. Where an
enquiry relates to non-planning matters, such as neighbour disputes or other
civil issues, these cannot be investigated by the Council. If your enquiry relates
to another function of the Council, we will direct this to the appropriate
department. Upon a justified complaint being received, a case will be opened
and published on our PublicAccess system. 
In some cases, we may require further information from you about the
suspected breach, such as photographs or evidence of development or
activity, before or instead of visiting the site. Additional investigation at
this stage may also be required for some cases to establish if a breach
has occurred, such as utilising our legal powers to seek information
from the developer(s) about the use of land and/or parties that have an
interest in the land. This can include us serving a Planning
Contravention Notice (PCN). The serving of notices for this purpose
may lengthen the process and, if this is required, this will be explained
to you where possible.
Service Standard - 1
After preliminary checks, we will register your enforcement observation
and you will receive either an email or written confirmation of this
within 5 working days from receipt. This acknowledgement will, if
justified and considered a breach of control, include the reference
number for the case as well as the contact details of the
investigating Enforcement Officer.
10 Perth & Kinross Council Ɩ Planning Enforcement Charter Ɩ 2021 Page 26 of 108

Page 27

Service Standard - 4
Where works or development has been carried out without planning
permission, but we consider that the development is likely to be
acceptable in terms of Development Plan policy, we may invite an
application or we may serve a notice under Section 33A of the Planning
Act that requires the developer to submit a planning application
retrospectively.
Service Standard - 3
You will receive a follow-up response to your observation within 20
working days of receipt. This will advise of any provisional findings
and, where relevant, detail the proposed course of action for the case,
which could mean formal enforcement action being taken. Communication
will also be made at this stage with the Developer on our findings
and possible action.
You may also be advised at this stage if the observation does not
constitute a breach of planning control or is not a planning matter -
either of which will result in your case being closed. We will set out in
writing our reasoning for all cases closed in a Closing Report.
Where we previously advised that a conclusion to a case has not been
reached, we will keep you informed of the progress with the case or notify
you its conclusion. If at any point we decide that further action is not
justified, we will inform you of this and the reasons for that decision.
In some cases, it may be inappropriate to regularly provide an update on
the progress of enforcement action, particularly when the matter proves
difficult to resolve quickly. You will be advised accordingly in such
circumstances.
Resolving Cases
Where a breach of planning control is identified and we provide an
undertaking to resolve it to address significant planning harm,
through informal or formal means, we will do this as quickly as possible. It
is advised, however, that progress on the case can be delayed for several
reasons; such as the collection and verification of information which
could be over a period of time, so negotiations could take place or where
formal procedures are organised.
The resolution to a breach may be through a planning application or
other consents (such as Listed Building Consent) being submitted to
regularise the breach. Where the development is likely to be
acceptable, the Council may seek the submission of an application in
retrospect as a valid means of assessing the development and
possibly addressing the breach. A formal decision will be made
through the planning application process. You will, however, have the
right to make representation on the application, which is separate to
any breach reported. The application process will increase the
timescales for the enforcement case.
Service Standard - 5
We will either conclude the case within, or provide an update to you, within
40 working days from receipt of your observation.
When an enforcement case is being closed, a Closing Report will be
prepared which will explain why we have come to a decision.
This report will be made publicly available.

Acting on Breaches of Planning Control
Informal Action and Discretion
It should be noted that, even though planning controls have not been
followed, in some cases formal action may not be appropriate.
Furthermore, most breaches of planning control are resolved informally.
The Council is obliged to use its discretion when considering action and
be proportionate with formal powers. Each case must be considered on
its own merits and the best solution in the circumstances must be
decided. Only a relatively small number of cases require formal
enforcement action, where we will serve a notice.
Formal Action
If we are unable to resolve a breach through informal measures, or
through a planning application, where justified we may take formal
enforcement action and serve a notice. This will normally be either
an Enforcement Notice or a Breach of Condition Notice. In some cases,
a Stop Notice or a Temporary Stop Notice may be appropriate. Notices
will clearly explain what is required, the timescales involved and the
available options to resolve the issue. Any notices served will be
available for viewing online on our PublicAccess system.
It should also be noted that an enforcement notice will be legally associated
with the building or land to which it relates until its provisions have been
fully discharged. This will be highlighted in any Property Enquiry
Certificate issued when a property is being sold.
The type of notices we can serve and when they can be served is fully
explained in the Scottish Government’s Circular 10/2009. In summary, the
Council’s powers include the ability to issue a Temporary Stop Notice to
stop development. These Notices are valid for up to 28 days and are
effective from the time they are served, without requiring that an
Enforcement Notice be served first. This allows the Council 28
days to consider the situation before a formal Enforcement Notice and Stop
Notice, if necessary, require to be served.
In most cases where a breach merits formal action, an Enforcement
Notice, or other such as a Listed Building Enforcement Notice,
Breach of Condition Notice or Amenity Notice is served on those
involved in the development or who own or have an interest in the
property. These notices include the following information:
• A description of the breach of control that has taken place.
• The steps that should be taken to remedy the breach.
• The timescale for taking these steps.
• The consequences of failure to comply with the notice.
• Where appropriate, any rights of appeal the recipient has and how to
lodge an appeal.
An Enforcement Notice can be accompanied by a Stop Notice if it is
considered justified to prevent, for example, further work being carried out
which is likely to have a significant detrimental impact on matters such as
environmental quality.
Where a Notice is not complied with, there may be further consequences and
the Council will usually take further formal steps, which can
include:
• the issue of a fixed penalty notice;
• seeking interdicts or referral of the case to the Procurator Fiscal for
prosecution; or
• direct action by the Council, to undertake the remedies specified in a
notice, which will include seeking recovery of our costs.
In taking such action, the Council will consider the most effective
means of ensuring compliance with the notice(s). The authority to
proceed with taking formal action or legal proceedings has been
delegated to the Head of Planning & Development.

Service Standard - 6
We will, where it is considered expedient to do so, aim to serve any
enforcement notice within 3 months from the date of the original
observation and we will advise you when this is done.
Further Information
Enforcement Register
We maintain an Enforcement Register, which details all notices served by
the Council. A list of recent Enforcement Notices is available on our
website.
Appeals
Where a notice is served the Developer can, in most cases, submit an
appeal to the Scottish Ministers. Most enforcement appeals are
delegated to Reporters within the Scottish Government’s Planning and
Environmental Appeals Division (DPEA) to determine. If this happens
timescales will be affected. The Council will defend notices served
and you will also have the opportunity to make representation to the
Scottish Ministers during the appeal process.
Alternatively it can be inspected in person, during normal office hours, by

Time Limits for Enforcement
Service Standard - 7
Where an appeal is submitted against a notice we will advise you of
this and inform you on how you can monitor progress. Following an
appeal decision, we will advise of any further action we will take, as
appropriate.
Planning Enforcement action must be taken within strict time limits:
• A four-year limit applies to unauthorised operational development (the
carrying out of building, engineering, mining or other
operations in, on, over or under land) and change of use to a single
dwellinghouse.
• A ten-year limit applies to all other development including change of use
(other than to a single dwellinghouse) and breaches of condition.
There is no time limit restricting the commencement of Listed Building
Enforcement Action or action concerning a Tree Preservation Order.

Perth And Kinross Council 
Economy & Infrastructure Committee 
29 May 2024 
EXTENSION OF ROAD MAINTENANCE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT TO
MARCH 2026 
Report by Strategic Lead - Environment and Infrastructure
(Report No. 24/160) 
1. PURPOSE 
1.1 The purpose of this report is to update the Committee on the period of the
existing Road Maintenance Partnership (RMP) agreement and propose an
extension to the existing arrangement. 
2. RECOMMENDATION 
2.1 It is recommended that the Committee: 
• agrees an extension to the existing partnership agreement (Appendix 1)
between Perth and Kinross Council and Tayside Contracts to deliver the
road maintenance, winter maintenance and reactive emergency
response service. The agreement will be for a period of two years from 1
April 2024 to 31 March 2026 with a further two year extension option
subject to review. 
• agrees that the RMP will report performance to Committee annually as
part of the Council’s performance management framework. 
3. STRUCTURE OF REPORT 
3.1 This report is structured over the following sections: 
• Section 4: Background/Main Issues 
• Section 5: Proposals  
• Appendices 
4. BACKGROUND / MAIN ISSUES 
4.1 It was agreed in 2012 that the roads maintenance service for Perth & Kinross
Council be delivered through a trial partnering agreement with Tayside
Contracts (Report no 12/131), a model supported by an Audit Scotland Best
Value Review.  At the outset of the partnership, efficiencies were identified
through a more integrated approach to service delivery with a number of posts
deleted from the establishment to remove duplication of effort. 
5
Page 33 of 108

Page 34

4.2 Perth & Kinross Council as “Roads Authority” provides a full range of services,
including statutory duties associated with the maintenance of the roads
infrastructure as required by the Road (Scotland) Act 1984 and the Transport
(Scotland) Act 2005.  The Roads Maintenance Partnership (RMP) provides for
the effective maintenance of the adopted road network, including footways, to
ensure that it is properly maintained in a safe condition. 
4.3 The RMP supports service delivery through an integrated operating structure
consisting of both Perth & Kinross Council and Tayside Contracts’ road
maintenance employees. Over the period of the partnership, officers from
each organisation have assumed responsibility for duties traditionally carried
out by the other to remove unnecessary barriers of bureaucracy and
permissions to deliver a more effective and efficient service. Each
organisation retains overall responsibility for the Terms and Conditions of their
respective employees. 
4.3 Governance of the RMP is undertaken by an Executive Board made up of
senior Council and Tayside Contracts officers. The Partnership Agreement
covers key areas such as principles for operational delivery, management of
employees, overall responsibilities and dispute resolution. 
4.4 In mid 2017, following a request from elected members, a member/officer
working group was established to review the way in which the partnership was
operating and to consider the most effective operating model going forward. 
4.5 The scope of the review considered the work activity of the RMP as outlined
below and considered alternative delivery models. 
• Carriageway and footway maintenance
• Carriageway and footway asset management
• Road scheme design and project management
• Winter maintenance
• Emergency response (eg flooding and severe weather) 
4.7 The outcome of the review established that in order to have the required 
labour/plant resource available to reactively deal with the impact of severe
weather events to support our communities, provide a level of service over the 
winter period to ensure that social and commercial activity can continue and
keep the road network in a safe condition for the travelling public, the
integrated operating model with Tayside Contracts remained the best option.
This is a less contractually binding arrangement than would be required with
the private sector and so more flexible in accommodating changes in Council
policy and budget reductions without compensation being due for loss of
income. 
Page 34 of 108

Page 35

4.8 The outcome of the review was presented to the Enterprise and Infrastructure 
Committee on 15 May 2019 (report no 19/134) and it was agreed to extend   
the term of agreement in its current form to March 2023. Committee also
requested an update report in advance of the expiry of the agreement
however this was deferred as a result of the Supported Self Assessment
exercise commissioned by the 3 Chief Executives of the constituent local
authorities. 
5. PROPOSALS 
5.1 It is proposed to extend the RMP agreement for a further 2 years to March
2026 plus a 2 year extension option subject to review before extending. Given
the challenging financial climate and ongoing programme of transformation
the format of service delivery may change in the future however it is
considered that this period of extension provides service delivery certainty for
the short to medium term.   
5.2 It is important to note that within the agreement either partner can opt out of
the partnership giving 6 months' notice on either 1 April or 1 October each
year. Therefore, agreement to this further extension does not prevent the
Council agreeing to an alternative model of delivery at a future point should
elected members believe that this would be in the best interests of the
Council. 
5.3 Following the first Covid lockdown, all road works were paused nationally. In
July 2020 when construction works recommenced the availability of
roadworks contractors was severely limited. Immediately after lockdown a
spike in private sector works, at more attractive rates, meant the Council were
heavily reliant on Tayside Contracts to provide the full range of services
themselves. Currently the market remains very limited, and the same level of
reliance remains on Tayside Contracts to deliver the service. 
5.4 Working in partnership with Tayside Contracts enables an appropriate level of
workforce to be retained to deliver the Winter Service and a reactive response
to severe weather events etc. It also remains flexible enough to adjust
workforce levels to accommodate fluctuations in road maintenance budgets.
This gives the Council confidence to manage and maintain the road network
in accordance with statutory requirements whilst also providing a reactive
response service to our communities where and when required across Perth
& Kinross. 
5.5 A Road Maintenance Framework Contract was issued for pricing in May 2022
to replace the 2017 framework. Only 18 private sector contractors across 11
work activities submitted rates. Tayside Contracts were the only contractor to
submit prices across all activities. 
Page 35 of 108

Page 36

5.6 Tayside Contracts rates are competitive when compared to the average
private sector rates and it is proposed that “award at average rates” remains
the award mechanism for projects via the framework contract. Projects will
continue to be priced, constructed, re-measured and paid except for works
disparate in nature and time to effect (gully emptying/lining/potholes) which
will continue to be paid at demonstrable cost. 
5.7 Tayside Contracts cannot wholly sub-contract work awarded to them on
average rates but do use specialist sub-contractors for elements of projects
they do not have the specialism/ resource to carry out, such as road stud and
safety barrier installation 
5.8 The RMP aim to expose 25% of their budget to competition via the 
Framework Contract or for atypical works to open competition. Open  
competition takes significant staffing resource to prepare bespoke contract 
documents and follow the Public Contracts Scotland procurement route and 
so is rarely used except for specialist works. As described in 5.3    
above Covid impacted private sector contractor availability and continues to 
do so. The figures in the table below reflect this impact.
Over the period of the current partnership the following competitive award 
has been achieved against the target. 
Year Value exposed % of spend TC win value TC % Private sector %
2019/20 £3,589,348 25.46% £1,735,091 12.3% 13.3%
2020/21 £1,599,978 17.7% £838,785 9.2% 8.5%
2021/22 £2,772,982 17.2% £1,298,636 8.1% 9.1%
2022/23 £2,793,968 17.2% £1,488,054 9.2% 8%
Excludes winter and works for Traffic & Road Safety, Structures & Flooding. 
5.9 In addition, through the period of the Framework Contract (2017-2022)
additional contractual entitlements such as inflationary increases were not
claimed by Tayside Contracts as the surplus was being achieved. This
approach was in the spirit of partnership working i.e. managing/sharing risk
and maximising the investment in the asset over surplus/profit. The private
sector however claim these irrespective of profit levels. 
5.10 As referenced above throughout the course of the contract, inflation is allowed
for by construction industry indices uplifts (BERR). The previous contract was
in place from 2017 and until February 2022 Tayside Contracts did not apply
for any BERR uplifts, instead containing costs within their awarded rate. Over
the course of the partnership period (April 2019-March 2023) Tayside
Contracts were entitled to claim a total of £1,963,791 however this funding
was reinvested in the road network equating to 8.9 km of A Class road being
resurfaced that wouldn’t otherwise have been carried out. 
Page 36 of 108

Page 37

5.11 From annual independent 3rd party road condition surveys the Perth and
Kinross road condition index (RCI) continued to improve year on year
throughout the term of the partnering agreement. Between 2019-2023, 6.4%
of the network (156km or 97miles) was in a better condition, all delivered
through the partnership and principally with the Tayside Contracts workforce.
The 2023 survey however indicated a deterioration of 1.8% (43km or 27miles)
largely due to the impact of severe weather events on the road network and
hyper inflation.

Economy & Infrastructure Committee 
29 May 2024 
STREET LIGHTING PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT 
Report by Strategic Lead, Environment & Infrastructure 
(Report No. 24/161) 
1. PURPOSE OF REPORT 
1.1. The purpose of this report is to seek approval to extend the existing
partnership agreement with Dundee City Council, Angus Council and Tayside
Contracts for the shared service delivery of Street Lighting across the
geographical areas of all three councils. Dundee City agreed a 5 year
extension on 23 January 2023 and this report, in order to tie-in with that
period, requests a 5 year agreement period to 31 March 2028.   
2. RECOMMENDATION 
2.1 It is recommended that the Committee: 
• note the contents of this report and agree the continued method of
service delivery by means of a 5 year Partnering Agreement. 
• agrees that the SLP will report performance to Committee annually as
part of the Council’s performance management framework. 
3. STRUCTURE OF REPORT 
3.1 This report is structured over the following sections: 
• Section 4: Background/Main Issues 
• Section 5: Proposals   
4. BACKGROUND / MAIN ISSUES 
4.1 The existing Street Lighting Partnership between Perth & Kinross Council, 
Dundee City Council, Angus Council and Tayside Contracts has existed in its
current successful form since 2006, albeit Angus Council only joined in 2020. 
This was the first partnership in this form and over the last 17 years, it has
consistently performed well against its various objectives and key service
performance indicators. The Street Lighting Partnership is fully committed to
the Roads Asset Management Planning framework and all Street lighting
inspections, repairs, inventory and records are held and updated
electronically. 
6
Page 57 of 108

Page 58

4.2 Full performance data is included in the annual Roads Asset Status Report
(Report no 18/364) . 
4.3 The Street Lighting Partnership has historically performed well and over the
years gained national recognition of its level of service and service approach. 
In 2008, it reached the finals of the Association of Public Service Excellence
(APSE) awards in the Public/Public Partnership category. In 2010, it was a
finalist in the APSE Best Performing category. In 2013, The Council was
shortlisted for a UK National Award ‘Best and Most Improved Performer’ for
the delivery of Street Lighting. 
4.4 The Partnership operates as an integrated team under a single Street Lighting
Partnership Manager who covers Perth and Kinross Council, Dundee City
Council and Angus Council and has many benefits for all three local
authorities and Tayside Contracts.  These include: 
• The larger team based across all three Councils is adaptable in dealing
with peaks and troughs in workload. 
• The production of a common specification has reduced the costs of
storage of materials and encourages cost savings through bulk
purchase. This approach is supported by Scottish Government
initiatives, Procurement Scotland and Scotland Excel. 
• The arrangement also meets the Scottish Governments objectives in
increased partnership working and shared services in line with the
Efficient Government agenda. 
• It gives scope for further development of such a partnership, for
example by other Councils joining to realise efficiency savings. As
stated above, Angus Council joined the partnership in 2020. 
• Since its inception the partnership approach has provided opportunities
for efficiencies and reduced staff levels and costs for all partners.  The
staffing levels are currently deemed to be at the lowest level to sustain
the existing level of service delivery. 
4.5 An Executive group comprising of senior officers from each Council and
Tayside Contracts meet four times a year to review performance of the
Partnership against a number of agreed criteria.  The present Partnering
Agreement expired on the 31 March 2023 after a further successful four year
period. 
4.6 As part of the Roads Asset Management Planning Framework, projections are
made in relation to the increasing price of electricity. Through capital
investment and spend to save policies, the Street Lighting Partnership has
sought to mitigate these increases.  This has been largely due to the proactive
approach of taking advantage of developing lighting technologies to reduce
electricity consumption and reduce maintenance. 
Page 58 of 108

Page 59

4.7 The Street Lighting Partnership is already well advanced in many of these
new technologies such as the use of energy efficient white light sources and
part night dimming. LED lanterns are now both more affordable and attractive
as spend to save solutions. 
4.8 The LED replacement programme has, to date, reduced the Councils energy
consumption by 52.5% which represents an annual reduction of 5,500,000
kWh of electricity. Carbon emissions have reduced by 80%, which represents
an annual reduction of 4,540 tonnes of Co2.  The cost savings for the Council
associated with this LED replacement scheme are currently £2.6m and are
estimated to produce a £20m saving over the 20 year life of the lanterns. 
4.9 The Street Lighting Partnership also introduced a Central Management
System (CMS) for 2200 street lights in Perth City Centre. Through
communication with nodes installed in the street lighting lanterns, this enables
the Street Lighting Partnership to remotely monitor individual streetlights as
well as control the level of lighting which is operational. This system allows for
the lights to be remotely monitored for fault issues as well as potentially
generating savings via variable lighting levels as needed by area. This
provides substantial environmental benefits as well as: - 
• Controllable and efficient street lighting
• Enhanced public and road safety
• Improved energy efficiency
• Improved lighting maintenance
• Improved data collection 
5. PROPOSALS 
5.1 While being one of the leading Councils in the introduction of new
technologies, there are still opportunities for improvement to further enhance
and build on the successes that have been realised to date. Listed below are
the main areas of work where the Partnership is realising further
improvements: 
• Introduction of LED light technology into street lighting applications to
reduce electricity consumption and further improve reliability and extend
the operational life of the lamps. To date 19,000 street lights have been
installed using LED technology.  There is approximately 6,000 further
street lights to be installed with this technology to reach 100%
installation. 
• In line with National Guidance and recommendations, street lights with
adaptable lighting levels have been introduced as standard in streets
where traffic volumes and pedestrian movement reduces significantly
outwith peak social hours. This innovative approach reduces electricity
consumption and assists in helping the Council meet its Statutory carbon
reduction obligation. 
Page 59 of 108

Page 60

• Through the SCOTS Asset Management project, the Partnership is
undertaking an active role in the introduction and development of Asset
Management tools and techniques to help further improve the service. 
5.2 Some of these initiatives and projects will take time to develop. The present
Street Lighting Partnering arrangement meets the Scottish Government's
objectives in increased partnership working in line with the Efficient
Government agenda.

INTRODUCTION
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Since 2006 streetlighting services have been delivered through a joint shared
services approach through the Streetlighting Partnership. In 2018, the Angus Council
area was included in the Partnership creating a joint shared services approach
across the three Council areas.  
The Partnership has been considered a success and has managed to streamline
administration, reduce duplication and demonstrate Best Value approach against a
set of strategic performance criteria. All parties have considered their options and
wish to extend the Tri Partnering approach for a period of 5 years from 1 April 2023
to 31 March 2028.
Operational delivery of the service is by means of an integrated organisation
comprising Tayside Contracts, Dundee City, Perth & Kinross and Angus Street
Lighting employees.
Responsibility for service delivery would continue to be overseen by an Executive
Board consisting of Officers from the City Development Department of Dundee City
Council, Communities Department of Perth & Kinross Council, Infrastructure and
Environment of Angus Council and Tayside Contracts.
The Integrated organisation is not a corporate body, nor does it have the capacity to
enter into contracts for whatever purpose.

ACTIVE TRAVEL STRATEGY - 
CYCLING, WALKING AND SAFER ROUTES (CWSR) PROJECTS 2024/25 
Report by Strategic Lead - Environment & Infrastructure
(Report No. 24/162) 
1. PURPOSE  
1.1 This report details the Cycling, Walking and Safer Routes (CWSR) projects
implemented in 2023/24.  It also seeks Committee approval of the proposed
list of active travel projects for 2024/25. 
2. RECOMMENDATIONS 
2.1 It is recommended that the Committee: 
• Notes the schemes implemented from the Cycling, Walking and Safer
Routes Grant Funding in 2023/24 as detailed at Appendix 1.
• Approves the list of works for active travel projects for the financial year
2024/25 as detailed in Appendix 2. 
3. STRUCTURE OF REPORT 
3.1 This report is structured over the following sections:  
• Section 4: Background       
• Section 5: Proposals           
• Section 6: Conclusion         
• Appendices 
4. BACKGROUND 
4.1 In 2023/24, Perth and Kinross Council received a capital grant of £982,000 for
Cycling, Walking and Safer Routes (CWSR) projects.  CWSR has for many
years been the grant source to deliver active travel projects. However,
Transport Scotland has altered the funding arrangements, and for 2024/25
and for future years the Council will be awarded a block capital grant for
active travel projects. This grant must be used for the purpose of undertaking
a programme of works for local cycling, walking and safer routes projects. 
4.2 Transport Scotland are still to confirm the full Tier 1 grant funding award for
2024/25, £664,000 of block grant funding for Active Travel was confirmed
through the budget process on 28 February 2024. However, Transport
Scotland have indicated that this is not the full amount, and we should expect
a similar level to 2023/24.
7
Page 79 of 108

Page 80

4.3 Appendix 2 shows the proposed projects for 2024/25 based on a similar level
of funding to 2023/24. However, if TS confirm that the budget differs to what
we are expecting then a briefing note will be provided to Elected Members
detailing the revised programme of projects for 2024/25. 
4.4 Included in the terms and conditions of the grant for 2023/24 is a provision
that local authorities shall consider a minimum spend of 36% (and preferably
above 50%) on works and promotion relating to cycling.  This approach was
agreed by the COSLA Regeneration and Sustainable Development Executive
Group on 5 February 2010. 
4.5 Transport Scotland’s long-term vision for active travel in Scotland 2030 is to
make walking or cycling the most popular choice for shorter everyday
journeys, by making it safer, easier, and available to everyone. It is intended
to achieve many outcomes, including better health, having attractive, safe
communities, and increased economic activity. 
4.6 At its meeting on 29 March 2023 (Report No. 23/103 refers), the Environment
Infrastructure & Economic Development Committee approved a list of works
to be funded from the anticipated 2023/24 Scottish Government grant of
£667,000 for CWSR projects.  However, the actual grant received was
significantly higher (£982,000). In addition, £100,000 was carried over from
the previous years CWSR grant. Details of the various schemes approved,
and how the funding was spent in 2023/24, are listed in Appendix 1.  
4.7 In total, £1,132,000 of actual works was funded in 2023/24 from the CWSR
grant and other external funding grants. In addition, £147,000 was claimed for
officer time for the works.  As approximately 75% of the 2023/24 grant funding
was spent on cycling related works, the terms and conditions of the grant
were met. 
4.8 Funding of £167,000 from Tayside and Central Transport Partnership
(TACTRAN) was also secured in order to deliver a section of shared use path
along the A94 between Woodside and Coupar Angus.  
4.9 The projects delivered during 2023/24 have provided improvements for the
most vulnerable road users in our communities. The measures included the
provision of dropped kerbs and build outs to assist pedestrians to cross the
road safely. Missing footpaths and shared use links were also provided to
assist and encourage pedestrians and cyclists in local communities to use
more active forms of travel. Several projects were delivered in the vicinity of
schools to provide improvements to infrastructure that will encourage active
travel for children going to and from school. 
4.10 Walking and cycling provides the individual with not just physical health
benefits but also provide benefits for mental health, the environment and
reducing transport costs. Perth and Kinross Council is committed to making it
easier for everyone to incorporate active travel choices into their daily
routines.

have been identified through working with the local communities, schools and
elected members. 
5.3 Tactran have advised that they have not received funding for infrastructure
projects so are unable to support such applications this year. 
5.4 Delivering a number of the projects listed in Appendix 2 will support meeting
the targets of the Cycle Action Plan for Scotland. A number of these projects
will improve and expand the cycling network infrastructure in Perth & Kinross.

3. Assessments 
Equality Impact Assessment 
3.1 An equality impact assessment needs to be carried out for functions,
policies, procedures or strategies in relation to race, gender and disability
and other relevant protected characteristics. This supports the Council’s
legal requirement to comply with the duty to assess and consult on relevant
new and existing policies. 
3.2 The function, policy, procedure or strategy presented in this report was
considered under the Corporate Equalities Impact Assessment
process (EqIA) with the following outcome: 
• Assessed as relevant and the following positive outcomes are
expected following implementation: 
▪ The measures, for example improved crossing facilities, footways
and traffic calming features, will provide improved access for
communities, and will particularly improve travel opportunities for
disabled people with mobility issues, sight or hearing impairment,
children, elderly people & parent/carers walking with children in
Page 83 of 108

Page 84

pushchairs/buggies. 
▪ The measures will provide improvements for road users of all ages,
but particularly for children and elderly people. This will include
facilities to enable them to cross roads safely. 
▪ The measures will also encourage children to walk or cycle to
school, thus bringing health benefits.
