Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control and injury to amenity
What decided it
The fence was erected as a single unlawful operation and therefore only reducing the entire fence to 1 metre height, as required by the enforcement notice, is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control and injury to amenity.
