Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether a material change of use from nil use to residential with associated operational development has occurred, or whether the use comprises a mixed use of residential and light industrial purposes
What decided it
The breach of planning control as alleged in the Enforcement Notice (material change of use to residential only) has not occurred because the actual use is a mixed use of residential and light industrial purposes, which is materially different from what was alleged.
