Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed changes to the disputed condition would materially alter the original description of development
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed changes would materially alter the original description of development by introducing new built form (terraces, privacy screens, balustrades) and enabling use of flat roofs not permitted in the original scheme, which cannot be dealt with as a Section 73 application.

Judgments cited: Finney v Welsh Ministers & Others [2019] EWCA Civ 1868
