Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Appeal A ground (f): whether the requirements of the enforcement notice are excessive
  • Appeals A and B ground (g): whether the period for compliance should be extended

What decided it

The requirements of the enforcement notice in Appeal A were excessive because they went beyond what was necessary to address the alleged breach of change of use, and the one-month compliance period was reasonable as the appellant had alternatives available including housing dogs in the existing dwelling.
