Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice constitute a breach of planning control
  • Whether the enforcement notice was properly served
  • Whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach

What decided it

The rear land and building formed a single planning unit, making the use of external areas incidental to the permitted drinking establishment use rather than a material change of use, but the operational development elements remained unauthorised.
