Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether copies of the enforcement notice were served as required by section 172 of the Act (ground e)
  • Whether the alleged material change of use to short-term lets has occurred as a matter of fact (ground b)
  • Whether the matters alleged constitute a breach of planning control (ground c)
  • Whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control (ground f)

What decided it

The compelling evidence from online marketing platforms and booking data demonstrating sustained short-term letting activity, combined with the appellant's own admissions regarding guest management, established both the factual occurrence of the use and its material change in character from permanent residential occupation.
