Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the matters stated in the enforcement notice constitute a breach of planning control (ground c)
- Whether by the time the notice was issued it was too late to take enforcement action against the rear extension (ground d)
What decided it
The appellant failed to provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate either that the change of use was permitted development or that the rear extension was substantially completed more than four years before the enforcement notice was issued.
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.
