Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a lawful development certificate was well-founded
What decided it
The material change of use of the garage to a dwellinghouse does not benefit from any planning permission or permitted development rights, and therefore the Council's refusal to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded.
