Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether a determination on the prior approval application was made by the Council within the statutory 28 day notification period
  • Whether or not the appeal proposal complies with Schedule 2, Part 6, Class A of the GPDO, including whether prior approval should be granted to the siting, design and external appearance of the building

What decided it

The appellant's original site plan was sufficient to constitute a valid application under Paragraph A.2(2)(ii) of the GPDO, and the Council's refusal notice was issued after the statutory 28-day determination period had expired, resulting in deemed approval.
