Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the compliance period for the enforcement notice should be extended to 12 months to allow time for pre-application consultation and submission of alternative planning proposals
What decided it
The Inspector has no power under ground (g) to extend the compliance period as this would amount to granting temporary planning permission, and the time already available (nearly seven months from decision date) is reasonable and proportionate for the appellant to pursue alternative proposals and comply with the notice.
