Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a certificate of lawful use or development was well-founded
- Appeal B: whether the proposed garage would have been lawful by virtue of Class E, Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Order
- Appeal C: the effects of the proposed development upon living conditions and character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
Appeal A: the extension extended beyond a rear wall by more than 3 metres, exceeding the 3-metre limit in paragraph A.1.(f) and precluding reliance on paragraph A.1.(g) due to commencement of works. Appeal B: the garage complied with Class E permitted development limitations. Appeal C: the substantial height and length of the garage would cause overbearing impact and loss of daylight to the neighbouring property, harming living conditions.
