- Inspector
- Renaudon L
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice have occurred (ground b)
- Whether the requirements of the notice exceed what is reasonably required to remedy the breach of planning control (ground f)
- Whether the use has been carried on for a sufficiently long time to have acquired lawfulness and prevent enforcement action (ground d)
What decided it
The appellants could not establish that the mixed use of storage and residential occupation had been carried on for 10 years or more to acquire immunity from enforcement action, and no certificate of lawful development existed to protect any prior residential use.
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.
