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 or any injury to amenity caused by the breach

What decided it

The requirements of the enforcement notice are necessary to remedy the breach of planning control, and the extensions actually constructed are materially different from any lawful alternatives that might have been available, particularly regarding their impact on Green Belt openness.
