Planning Enforcement

The Planning Enforcement Team has a clear objective to efficiently and effectively tackle environmental crime, being able to fully exercise the legal powers available to Enfield Council. Planning Enforcement continues to help support two key aims of the Council for a Cleaner Greener Enfield and making the borough a safer place to live, work, study and do business by reducing crime and the fear of crime through an improved environmental public protection service.

The Planning Enforcement Team is integrated into the powers and functions of a range of enforcement teams, including Street Scene Enforcement and Public Health and Nuisance.  They are able to work closely with Licensing, Environmental Health, Food Safety, Development Control, Building Control, Waste and the Anti Social Behaviour Team.
