Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appellants should be granted an extension of time to comply with the enforcement notice requiring removal of the unauthorised extension

The appellants' demonstrated lack of genuine commitment to compliance, evidenced by their refusal of Council access, failure to respond to correspondence, and the fact that the unauthorised development had already been in place for over 12 months with a previous extension already granted.
