Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the stationing of a caravan for residential use constitutes a breach of planning control
- Whether the development was immune from enforcement on the date of the enforcement notice
- Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach
What decided it
The appellants failed to demonstrate on the balance of probability that the caravan had been occupied continuously and uninterrupted for residential purposes for ten years prior to the enforcement notice, and could not establish that the residential use was ancillary to the pub business.
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.
