Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether a material change of use from residential to mixed residential and hairdressing use has occurred requiring planning permission (Ground c)
  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach (Ground f)

What decided it

The number of regular visits to the premises (8-17 per day) materially changes the character of the use from residential to a mixed use requiring planning permission, and the enforcement notice steps are necessary and proportionate to remedy the breach.
