Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice have occurred
  • Whether those matters, if they occurred, constitute a breach of planning control

What decided it

The commercial vehicle parking and storage activity is ancillary to the primary dwellinghouse use and does not constitute a material change of use, as the vehicles are used solely by the dwelling occupiers for their day-to-day travel requirements.
