Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal is permitted development, in particular, whether the building operations are reasonably necessary for the building to function as a dwellinghouse
What decided it
The absence of detailed information as to the full extent of works required to convert the building to residential use, combined with evidence that substantial repanelling of external walls and total roof replacement would likely be necessary, meant the proposal could not be confirmed as reasonably necessary building operations and therefore did not constitute permitted development under Class Q.
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.
