Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the compliance period specified in the enforcement notice falls short of what should be reasonably allowed

What decided it

The Council's willingness to extend the compliance period to six months, supported by information from the Kennel Club regarding reasonable timescales for dog breeding cycles and rehoming, was sufficient to justify the variation.

The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
