Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's decision to refuse the certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded

What decided it

The appellant's evidence was sufficiently precise and unambiguous to satisfy the balance of probability that the 3 flats had been continuously used as self-contained flats for 4 years prior to the application, and the Council had no contradictory evidence and failed to take enforcement action within the statutory limitation period.
