Circumventing UK Planning Law For 2m Boundaries
<p>Are these legal ways for a council to avoid dealing with the 2m boundary restriction for planning?</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Only measure the fence months later (where the perpetrator has delayed it that long) when the ground level has been raised on the perpetrator's side of the fence after the council has repeatedly been told the ground was being raised with mud from another location of the garden?</p>
</li>
<li><p>Fail to measure the victim's side of the fence where the original ground level exists to see there are no changes, on the day they are finally allowed to measure the perpetrator's side of the fence?</p>
</li>
<li><p>Allow the perpetrator to detach a 3m+ high section of fence from the main fence, but keep it leaning against the main fence so it remains the same height?</p>
</li>
</ol>

<h2>Enforcement of laws is discretionary</h2>
<p>A council (or the police, or immigration, etc) decide whether they are going to enforce the law or not and how they will go about doing so.</p>
<p>If your rights have been violated then it’s up to you to enforce them by suing the person who did so.</p>
