Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters stated in the enforcement notice have occurred
  • Whether the development constitutes a breach of planning control
  • Whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach
  • Whether the time given to comply with the notice is too short

What decided it

The metal balustrades and steps constitute a building operation that materially affects the external appearance of the building and require planning permission, which has not been granted, and removal is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control.

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.
