Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the time period for compliance with the enforcement notice is reasonable

What decided it

The Inspector has no authority to extend the compliance period on a ground (g) appeal as this would constitute granting temporary planning permission, and the 11-month effective compliance period available to the appellant is reasonable and proportionate.
