Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's decision to refuse to grant a Certificate of Lawfulness for a Proposed Use or Development (CLOPUD) was well-founded
What decided it
The storage and display for sale of storage containers, without any restriction on scale, would result in a material change in the character of the use compared to the existing lawful mixed use, and no planning permission exists for that material change.
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.
