George Clooney CCTV installation plans had finally been given a green flag by the Developers, told Dailymail.co.uk.

The couple had been granted the permission to erect eight 18-feet high poles with CCTV cameras around their £10 million Aberlash mansion in Berkshire despite of the objections raised by their unhappy neighbors.

George Clooney was renovating his luxury home situated at Sonning Eye, Chron.com reported. The couple had filed that paperwork seeking for planning permission. They wanted to install 8 cameras on poles planted on the grounds of their property along with ten that would be attached to their house itself.

Eye and Dundsen Parish Council had raised concerns over the CCTV system's visual impact and infringement of neighbors' privacy, told BBC. Reporters said that the complaint was dropped after the couple agreed to reduce the height of the poles.

The South Oxfordshire District Council had granted the planning permission, BBC reported . The officials  had assured that the CCTV  system would not be detrimental to the historical and architectural aspect of the Grade II listed building.

The application was rubber stamped by the planning bosses only when couple's planning agent, Paul Butt filed an amended application on July 23, 2015, told Dailymail.co.uk.The revised application focused on achieving an efficient security system with low-level inward facing cameras. 

Each of George Clooney CCTV cameras would be housed in vandal-resistant domes that could be panned or tilted in any direction to keep a watch around the property, told ITV. . 

Ocean Eleven actor George Clooney's "nine-bedroom mansion sits on a four acre stretch of land straddling the Berkshire and Oxfordshire border in the picturesque quietude of River Thames," told Dailymail.co.uk.

Clonney's mansion has its own library, gym, swimming pool, spa room along with a separate cottage for guests and staff. In the near future, it will be fitted with a state-of-art George Clooney CCTV system, for security purposes.
