Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council issued the enforcement notice unreasonably following inadequate prior investigation

What decided it

The Council's interpretation of the facts, while ultimately incorrect, was not so unreasonable as to warrant a costs award, as the factual circumstances gave reasonable scope for different views.
