Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be permitted development under Article 3(1) and Schedule 2, Part 16, Class A of the Town & Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended)
- if so, whether prior approval would be required in accordance with the conditions set out in Paragraph A.2 of the GPDO
What decided it
The proposal would result in more than 5 antenna systems on the building, conflicting with condition A.1(2)(e)(ii)(aa) of the GPDO, and insufficient information was provided to demonstrate compliance with condition A.1(2)(f)(ii), meaning the development does not qualify as permitted development.
