Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The main issue is whether the Authority’s refusal in part to issue an LDC, specifically for the use of the land for the stationing of the trailer for internal storage, was well founded.

What decided it

The trailer was found to still serve a genuine internal storage purpose and therefore had not become an 'other scrap item' in contravention of the extant enforcement notice.
