Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the alleged breaches of planning control have occurred as a matter of fact, specifically whether the portacabin was being used for residential purposes
What decided it
The appellant failed to discharge the burden of proof that the portacabin was not being used for residential purposes when the enforcement notice was issued, given the Council's photographic evidence of residential amenities and the appellant's own admission of non-full-time living use.
