The angry locals complained about having the rest of the region’s great development on the roof of the property and invading their privacy by looking at their homes.
They also believe that the decision will provide a ‘free planning for everyone’ with their landlords who can now build what they want and then ask for permission.
The row, Wiltshire, behind the family house in Swindon, a box of roof -built built -in roof – a kind of roof extension – is centered.
In August 2019, the host Harjinder Sararan was continued for the construction of front, side and back extensions and an additional building in the garden.
These buildings rose in 2020, but the large box roof extension was instantly concerned with neighbors.

‘Remove the box chip from the back height of the residence.

The angry locals complained that the great development on the roof of the property did not continue the rest of the region and that they invaded their privacy by looking at their homes.
‘Due to the shortage of severe personnel and obviously the total inadequacy, the violation of the case implementation declaration took two years.
“ There was a problem with the legality of the enforcement notification due to more inadequacy between the practice and the legal.
My concern is that this monster creates a precedent. I want to ensure that this does not come to other people in the future. ‘
Melrose added that the decision to remove the execution declaration is less about money and ‘inadequacy of the council’.
The authority claimed that they knew they would lose their planning charm for more than four years since the increased box roof extension.
Other residents in the region, the back roof extension ‘invaded their privacy’ said concerns about.

However, others said they were not worried about development.
Someone who wants to stay anonymous said: It didn’t bother us at all. This was not a problem.
“ We never objected at first. We received a letter that says it was removed in April, then we bought another one who said it was good now.
‘I can understand why people can get angry. It stands quite prominent. ‘
Mrs. Saran previously defended the decision to create a box dormer.
Last year, Swindon said to the advertiser: ‘We do not plan to download the box dormer. We wrote to the Council, but we didn’t hear anything. ‘
Mrs. Saran added: ‘If you look at Swindon, there are box lofts everywhere, because it is very expensive to move.
‘This meets all building arrangements and is safe.’
