Then your development remains in non-compliance.Yes, but what if we cannot agree on a suitable boundary treatment.
They are only exempt because they do not conflict with a pre-existing planning condition.The wall in question is only 1 meter high. Similar to other such walls in the estate which are exempt.

They basically want an open front garden. Which is the nature of the original estate many years ago, 1980s. Time has moved on and some houses have walls and metal fences etc. I'm only caught with this issue as I applied for permission for my extension. I can see what the council want, but on the other hand the walls are 1 meter and low in nature and protect my property, think insurance and do not detract from the row of houses. But I do think this issue has been brought to the council's attention by an objector. The estate is old. I've done a really nice job and I don't see why the council can't agree with a wall, it's not beside a protected structure or a historic building, it's a typical housing estate. If I'm not in compliance what happens??Have you asked the Council what they roughly see as acceptable boundary treatment? If so what details did they give you?
The authority can take enforcement proceedings against you, potentially obtaining a court order to compel you to comply along with issuing a fine.If I'm not in compliance what happens??
Exactly that, the exempted development provisions do not over-ride any conditions previously attached.You will likely find if you go and check the planning drawings and conditions of the original estate that front boundary walls/fences were de-exempted.
