Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether on the balance of probability works to regrade and raise land levels were substantially completed by 21 November 2015 (ground d)
  • Whether the requirements of the notice, as proposed to be corrected, would be excessive, taking into account the purpose of the notice (ground f)
  • Whether the compliance period of twelve months is reasonable (ground g)

What decided it

The engineering works to raise and regrade land levels were not substantially completed within four years of the notice date, so the breach was not immune from enforcement action, and the requirement to restore the land to its 2010 condition was neither excessive nor unreasonable.

The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
