Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council's refusal was well founded

What decided it

Although the material operations initiated the planning permission within the required timeframe, the deviation of the new access from the approved plans constituted a breach of condition 2 for which enforcement action could still be taken, rendering the operations unlawful under section 191(2)(a) of the 1990 Act.
