Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the time specified for compliance with the enforcement notice (six months) falls short of what should reasonably be allowed under section 174(2)(g) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990

What decided it

The public interest in expeditious compliance with the enforcement notice outweighs the appellant's private interests in extending the compliance period, particularly given the significant harm to character and appearance and the lack of substantive evidence supporting the claimed difficulties.

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.
