Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the breach of planning control alleged in the enforcement notice has occurred as a matter of fact
  • Whether there has been a breach of planning control
  • Whether, at the time the enforcement notice was issued, it was too late to take enforcement action
  • Whether the steps required to comply with the requirements of the notice are excessive

What decided it

The appellant failed to provide sufficient corroborating evidence to demonstrate on the balance of probabilities that the operational works were substantially completed before 23 March 2018, placing them outside the four-year enforcement period.

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.
