Officers from Public Protection are currently working with Conwy Businesses, other agencies and partners to ensure that they keep up to date with Government Regulations aimed at keeping residents safe and helping to prevent the spread of Covid 19.
You can still log your complaint, we apologise in advance as this additional work will unfortunately, for the next few months, result in some timescales in processing and dealing with your complaint being delayed.
It is illegal to permit a site to be used as a regulated site without a holding a licence. An application for a site licence must be made by the owner of the land which must have the benefit of planning permission to use the land for such a purpose.
Once all particulars are in order a licence can be issued for up to 5 years.
The Act allows a local authority to charge for various functions:
- Issuing of a site licence, which includes the cost of an inspection
- Varying conditions
- Lodging site rules should the owner of the site request this
- Providing a replacement licence.
Conwy CBC has considered the costs that would be incurred for these different functions and related this to different sizes of site.
The Act requires that the local authority publicise its fees policy in relation to the different functions.
