Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the structures constitute buildings and therefore amount to operational development
  • Whether the containers were substantially completed at least four years before the date of the LDC application and were not part and parcel of or ancillary to an unauthorised use
  • Whether the containers were dependent on a temporary planning permission conditional on their subsequent removal

What decided it

The red container was relocated within the same broader site adjoining the residential development and remained in breach of permitted development conditions requiring removal, whereas the blue container had been removed from the broader site by March 2017 and was therefore lawful through the passage of time.

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.
