Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the material change of use took place before 30 September 2016, with the use as ten self-contained flats continuing for at least four years thereafter
What decided it
The appellant failed to provide sufficiently precise and unambiguous evidence on the balance of probability that the ten self-contained flats had been in continual use for the four-year period preceding the enforcement notice, particularly given Council evidence that contradicted the appellant's version of events.
