Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice are excessive and whether lesser steps could overcome the breach of planning control

What decided it

The requirements to remove the unauthorised development in its entirety are not excessive as they are necessary to remedy the breach of planning control, and lesser steps would not prevent the appellant from re-erecting the unauthorised works.
