Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether it was too late for enforcement action to be taken, on the ground that the mixed use had operated for 10 years or more

What decided it

The Council's evidence showing the hand car wash service began in 2015, substantially after the material date of 8 September 2011, meant the appellant could not demonstrate the mixed use had operated for the required 10-year period.
