Town & Country Planning (Control of advertisements) ( England ) Regulations 2007.
During the summer you [EBRA] wrote to the office of the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government giving your support to the making of a direction to bring under planning control the display of estate agents’ sale and letting boards in certain conservation areas in the centre of the city.
The Council has been informed that a hearing is to be conducted into the making of this direction, having received an objection to the proposal from the Brighton and Hove Estate Agents’ Association.
The hearing will be held at the Town Hall, Norton Road , Hove on Wednesday 9th March at 10.00.
Should you wish to make further written representation, this should be made to Mr C Kearney at Communities and Local Government, Floor 1/A1, Eland House, Bressenden Place , London SW1E 5DU , no later than 8th February.
Members of the public may attend the hearing and, at the discretion of the Planning Inspector, express their views. If you are disabled or anyone you know who wants to attend the hearing is disabled, do contact me to ensure that proper arrangements have been made with regard parking space, access, or seating arrangements etc.
Full details of the council’s representation in support of the proposal together with maps defining the areas which are recommended for inclusion in the direction are available for inspection during normal office hours at the “City Direct” Information and Advice Centres in the Town Hall, Norton Road , Hove and at Bartholomew House, Bartholomew Square , Brighton .
Yours sincerely
