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 (ground (f))
  • Whether the period for compliance with the notice is reasonable (ground (g))

What decided it

The requirements of the notice, as varied to require only demolition and restoration to the previous condition without specifying materials matching, do no more than remedy the breach of planning control and are therefore not excessive.
