Durham County Council has been notified by fibre broadband provider Netomnia that they intend to install a telegraph pole opposite 1 The Factory in Castle Eden on the terms set out below.
Please note that this matter is considered as permitted development and is entirely beyond the control of Durham County Council. As such, any observations or representations should be sent to Netomnia direct using the contact details shown in the notification statement below.
I am writing to advise you that Netomnia, as a fibre broadband provider, has given the council as planning and highway authorities notification to install a telegraph pole at Opposite 1 The Factory, Castle Eden. I have attached a plan indicating the proposed location of the pole.
Netomnia are permitted to install telegraph poles, within the public highway, utilising their Statutory Code Powers (granted by central government) under “The Code and the Electronic Communications Code (Conditions and Restrictions) Regulations 2013”.
The installation of the telegraph poles is classified as Permitted Development under “Town and Country (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015”, therefore no formal consultation process is required under this Order.
However, although the poles are Permitted Development you may, should you wish to do so, make a representation (not objection) to Netomnia relation to this telegraph pole. This must be done by 16/01/2023 quoting reference 45184.
Should you wish to make a representation to Netomnia please send directly to joanne.heslop@mapgroupuk.com and copy the representation to streetworks@durham.gov.uk
