Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the largest outbuilding was substantially completed before 7 February 2016 such that enforcement action was time-barred
  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control
  • Whether the time periods for compliance with the enforcement notice are reasonable

What decided it

The date-stamped photographs taken by the Council on 13 April 2016 demonstrating the building was still under construction, contradicting the appellant's assertion of completion by February 2016.
