Compulsory Purchase Order's (CPO)

Picture
If a person objects to the issuing of a CPO, they may appeal to the High Court.

What is a CPO?
Source: Wikipedia
A compulsory purchase order (CPO) is a legal function in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland that allows certain bodies which need to obtain land or property to do so without the consent of the owner. It may be enforced if a proposed development is considered one for public betterment - for example - when building motorways where a land owner does not want to sell. Similarly, if town councils wish to develop a town centre,

they may issue compulsory purchase orders. If a person objects to the issuing of a CPO, they may appeal to the High Court. In the United Kingdom, most Orders are made as subordinate legislation under powers given to Local Authorities in existing legislation (e.g. an Order for road works is made under the Highways Act 1980). Whilst the powers are strong the Authority must demonstrate that the taking of the land is necessary and there is a "compelling case in the public interest". Owners or occupiers can challenge this, and their objection will be heard by an independent Inspector. 

Compensation rights
Source:  liverpool.gov.uk
Compensation rights usually include the value of the property, costs of acquiring and moving to a new property, and sometimes additional payments. Costs of professional advice regarding compensation are usually reimbursed by the Authority, so that people affected by a compulsory purchase order can seek advice from a solicitor and a surveyor and expect to be reimbursed.

What if I don't want to sell, will you use Compulsory Purchase Orders?
Source:  liverpool.gov.uk
If your property lies within an area that has been identified for demolition then in the first instance we will seek to purchase your property in agreement with you by negotiating a price. If, however, you still do not wish to sell then the Council may exercise its Compulsory Purchase Powers in order to purchase the property at so we can assemble the sites to enable the regeneration of the area to take place. 

We will only begin a Compulsory Purchase Order as a last resort. Every effort will be made to negotiate with all owners and occupiers and acquire properties by agreement first. Even if a CPO is made, we can still and will negotiate with you. 

The market value of your property is unaffected by whether there is a CPO in place; our offer to buy businesses and commercial properties is the same as it would be under a CPO, which means that you will be eligible to receive the same compensation package. There is no financial advantage in waiting for a CPO.


What if I want to object to the CPO?
Source:  liverpool.gov.uk
Should we make a CPO then you have the right to formally object. Ultimately, a Government appointed inspector will consider your objection at an Inquiry unless your objection is based solely on the purchase price for your business / commercial property. 

If we intend to include your property within a CPO, we will always make every effort to consult and engage with you before this happens. There are a number of stages in the CPO process and you will be contacted in writing in advance of us making the CPO.

We make the CPO by seeking a resolution from our Executive Board and then submitting it to the Government for confirmation. At this stage we will serve a written notice on everyone who has an interest in the land or property to be acquired and notices will be placed in the press. 

The notices will set out how to make an objection. If objections are received, the government minister may decide to hold a public local inquiry to hear all the relevant information and decide whether to approve the order.

1. LFC need land and over the last decade or so they've been buying as much as possible. They have added to the dereliction and abandoned look of the area by keeping scores of their properties unoccupied, boarded up and ill maintained. Over the years, LFC bought up a number of properties on both sides of Lothair Road (not just immediately behind the main stand) – but they were left to fall into decay and dereliction. The road became the target of vandals and arsonists, with 16 (not 14) separate fires in the properties over six years, causing misery to the few residents who remained. LFC land - banking dates back to David Moores' time at the club, it was adopted by H&G and until recently still existed under FSG. Someone at LFC took the decision to do this and until recently they continued to do it. LFC and FSG know how to play the "media" game - with sound bites and PR men neatly avoiding the fact that for many years they have been land-banking properties in the area therefore they played a part in creating or at least adding to the blighted problem.
2. Arena Housing (Your Housing) who are Registered Social Landlords (RSL) with a Corporate Social Responsibility, own possibly the largest number of empty properties in Lothair Road . 2a. Why is a government funded housing association with a corporate social responsibility charter - allowed to actually negate that responsibility by boarding up and neglecting their properties over a very long period of time? Arena have in the recent past, said that they won't spend money fixing their properties because LFC might want to demolish them! 2b. Has that been Arena's policy for the past 10 - 15 years? 2c. How can Liverpool football club's indecision dictate a government funded housing association's policy?
3. Liverpool City Council own properties in Lothair Road but beyond that, they hold immense power when it comes to procedures for dealing with long term empty properties. These procedures enable the council to force owners to think about the long term future of their EMPTY properties and to bring them back into use - yet not one (as far as I am aware) of these many blighted properties which are an eyesore and have had a negative effect on the neighbourhood and its residents, has had such measures implemented upon it.
