Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: whether the works had been substantially completed by 5 August 2019 such that the time limit for enforcement action had expired; whether permitted development rights apply to the canopy and dormer extension; whether an enforcement notice was in force on 8 August 2023
- Appeal B: whether the first-floor side extension constitutes a breach of planning control (ground c); whether enforcement action could be taken in respect of the extension at 1 December 2023 (ground d)
- Appeal C: whether the dormer extension is permitted development under Class A or Class B of Part 1 Schedule 2 to the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015
What decided it
The appellant failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that the works were substantially completed more than four years before the application date, and the structure does not qualify as permitted development under Class A or Class B of the GPDO.
