Unauthorised gas bottling plant demolished

Thursday, 11 February 2010

A Co Tyrone couple were today each fined £250 plus legal costs of £75.00 and court costs of £26.00 at Strabane Magistrates’ Court for further non-compliance with a Planning Service Enforcement Notice.

Mr Francis Wray and Mrs Noleen Wray of Scotstown Road, Clady, were charged with the unauthorised erection of shed, tanks and yard in use as a gas bottling plant at Scotstown Road, Clady, Co Tyrone.

The gas bottling plant had to be demolished after the Planning Appeals Commission upheld the enforcement notice seeking its removal.

This was complied with during the week beginning the 8 February 2010.
