Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the requirements of the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control

What decided it

The carport is unauthorised and does not benefit from planning permission, so nothing other than its complete removal would remedy the breach of control, and any amended structure would still require planning permission which does not exist.
