Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice constitute a breach of planning control, specifically whether the extension is permitted development under Class A, Part 1, Article 3 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015
What decided it
The extension's brick exterior finish did not comply with the condition requiring materials of similar appearance to the existing dwellinghouse's white painted render finish, and the development was constructed as a self-contained flat rather than an enlargement.
The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
