Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the steps required by the enforcement notice exceed what is necessary to remedy the breach of planning control

What decided it

The 2020 planning permission had expired and was not implemented, the constructed garage materially differs from what was approved, and there is no lawful fallback position to consider.
