WALLS, FENCES AND PAVING:
A Reminder
Seemingly minor changes can have a significant impact on the local street-scene - and the wider environment - which is why many of them are subject to planning control. Liverpool City Council takes enforcement action when necessary, but this process is often lengthy - meaning that neighbours and contractors are sometimes unaware of it until the work eventually has to be undone (or re-done).
In particular, it should be noted that planning permission is needed to construct a new wall or fence higher than one metre if it is next to a public highway, or two metres elsewhere. And permission is also needed to pave over a front garden, if the material used is impermeable, covers more than 5 sq.metres, and does not provide for the water to run to a permeable area such as a lawn or border.
Advice on such planning matters can be obtained from the Council by phoning 0151 233 3021

A GATEACRE VILLAGE CLEAN-UP
The Friends of Gateacre continue to maintain the planters in and around the village centre, and to organise 'clean-up' sessions to clear litter and weeds from our local streets. New recruits are always welcome; for details email fogateacre25@btinternet.com
The next Clean-up Day is on Saturday 28th March, and anyone willing to volunteer is invited to assemble outside the Black Bull pub at 10 a.m.
