Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice (excavation of a new swimming pool) have occurred as a matter of fact
- Whether enforcement action could be taken at the date the notice was issued, given the four-year immunity period for operational development
What decided it
The appellants failed to demonstrate that the new swimming pool was substantially complete before 14 July 2019, as the physical features and design at the appeal site resembled a pool under construction rather than a completed operational development.
