Breaching an encumbrance

Encumbrances may affect or limit your proposal or prevent it from proceeding. If the proposal contravenes any encumbrance, contact the council for advice on how to proceed.

    • Section 61(4) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 for example, prevents a council from granting a permit if it would result in a breach of a registered restrictive covenant.
