Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Ground (b): whether the matters alleged in the notice have not occurred as a matter of fact
- Ground (c): whether the matters stated in the notice do not constitute a breach of planning control
- Ground (f): whether the steps required by the notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach
- Ground (g): whether the compliance period specified falls short of what should reasonably be allowed
What decided it
The Inspector concluded that the residential caravan use, waste storage and new calf barn were unauthorised, unsupported by permitted development rights or any deemed application, so the enforcement notice's requirements were necessary and reasonable and all grounds of appeal failed.
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.
