Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the enforcement notice was served as required by section 172 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990
Whether the timescale for compliance with the requirements of the enforcement notice falls short of what should reasonably be allowed

What decided it

The appellants' departure from the site eliminated the factual basis for extending the compliance period, and proper service of the enforcement notice was established despite minor address inconsistencies.

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.

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
