Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the matters alleged in the enforcement notice have occurred as a matter of fact (ground (b))
  • Whether the period for compliance with the enforcement notice is unreasonably short (ground (g))

What decided it

The appellants failed to provide the precise and unambiguous evidence required to establish on ground (b) that the alleged breach had not occurred, and the Inspector was satisfied from site observations that the breaches had occurred as a matter of fact.

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.
