This is just about how you phrase the rule. In the UK local planning authorities have the right to approve or deny planning applications so it's perfectly within the council's power to stop people from doing anything covered by planning approval, so that's one way they could limit it.
- maratc 4y agoThe application writers and the approving authorities can't make whatever rules they want. I think that if there is anything outrageous in the planning application, and it gets approved by the local authority, it can still be challenged in a court. I am certain, for example, that if the planning application would include a clause banning e.g. blacks, LGBT, or non-Anglicans from buying a property, this would be shot down later, even if approved. The question is, whether limiting current homeowners from buying a property would stand up to the courts' scrutiny or not.
- SilverBirch 4y agoSure, it's possible it would get challenged, but I don't think this really comes anywhere close to something obviously discriminatory.
