Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the chargeable development has commenced for Community Infrastructure Levy purposes
- Whether the creation of a dropped kerb and access to the existing dwelling constitutes a material operation that triggers commencement of the residential development
What decided it
The creation of the dropped kerb and access to the existing dwelling was a minor, de minimis operation that was self-contained and insignificant in the context of the whole residential scheme, and therefore did not constitute commencement of the chargeable development for CIL purposes.
