Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the requirements of the enforcement notice are excessive
What decided it
The requirement to reduce the dormer size by setting it back 0.2 m from the ridge was excessive because retaining the dormer at current dimensions with tile cladding would sufficiently remedy the injury to amenity and represent an obvious alternative at less cost and disruption.
