Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the period specified for compliance with the enforcement notice falls short of what should reasonably be allowed under section 174(2)(g) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990
What decided it
The compliance actions required are relatively straightforward and do not require complex or time-consuming measures, and the uncertainty of whether planning permission will be granted to vary the conditions does not justify extending the one-month compliance period.
