Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the Council failed to serve a timely Liability Notice in respect of the CIL surcharge

What decided it

The Council's failure to serve the Liability Notice within a reasonable timeframe effectively prevented the appellant from submitting a valid Compliance Notice as required by the regulations.
