Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice have in fact occurred
  • Whether it was too late to take enforcement action against the matters alleged in the notice
  • Whether the requirements of the notice are excessive

What decided it

The extensions were substantially completed within four years of the enforcement notice being issued, placing them within the enforcement period, and the notice requirements represent a proportionate remedy to restore the property to its pre-breach condition.

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.
