Planning appeal decision
Main Street, Mursley, Aylesbury, MK17 0RT
Planning appeal 3271906 at Main Street, Mursley, Aylesbury, MK17 0RT (Buckinghamshire Council - Aylesbury Area *) was dismissed on 25 August 2021 by Inspector Pleasant L, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the Council's deemed refusal to grant a Certificate of lawfulness of existing use or development would have been well founded, turning on whether the appellant can demonstrate on the balance of probability that the use as a touring caravan site took place on or before 14 August 2010 and continued without significant interruption for at least ten years thereafter, so as to be immune from enforcement action.
