Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether a material change of use to a mixed use of agricultural, storage and leisure use has occurred
- Whether the operational development (wooden toilet block, raised patio, vehicle hardstanding, fencing and gate) constitutes unauthorised development
- Whether the enforcement notice is sufficiently clear and precise in its allegations and requirements
What decided it
The enforcement notice is invalid and incapable of correction because it fails to specify with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control and the steps required for compliance, and correcting the errors would cause injustice to the appellant.
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.
