Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control or injury to amenity
- Whether the time given to comply with the notice is too short
What decided it
The availability of permitted development rights as a fallback position to erect a 1 metre boundary treatment meant the full demolition requirement was excessive and the notice should be varied to allow this lesser remedy.
