Building Regulations

Wait 5 sec.

Hi Everyone, I request some knowledge assistance please. I have a neighbour across my road who is currently converting the property and buildings (2) into a business/businesses. This conversion however is affecting my property (I live directly across) as the inflow of traffic will male it difficult to exit or enter my driveway as well as increase the chances of getting into an accident in my driveway. Another issue is that since they have removed the fences, it is an open area now in which both buildings (top of a slope) can both look directly into my yard, and as such my view from my front yard is looking directly as these buildings. I feel like this will decrease the safety aspect of my property as the increase eyes on the property can see when the house is empty or not as of the open space where people can sit in their cars and watch etc. I am unsure why but are these types of developments not supposed to get consent or notify neighbours before they develop? I need to known who I can speak to regarding these issues, as this puts sever strain on the property I live in. I have phoned to what I think is the building council and they have said they got sign off from the neighbours (which I know they did not get from at least two of the neighbouring properties). I did miss the Objection of Amendment to the properties as this was thensecond time and I only objected the first time it was in plan (this was closed). Who would I contact to provide my grievances to the development? I'm in the City of Ekurhuleni, Alberton. Thank you   submitted by   /u/Kakarot_Law_VGC [link]   [comments]
