Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control (ground f)
- Whether the period for compliance with the notice is reasonable (ground g)
What decided it
The appellant's proposed alternative of limiting occupancy to nine residents would still constitute a large HMO in sui generis use without planning permission, and therefore would not remedy the breach of planning control.
