Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the enforcement notice specifies with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control and the steps required for compliance

What decided it

The enforcement notice failed to specify with sufficient clarity the alleged breach of planning control and the steps required for compliance, and the ambiguity could not be corrected without causing injustice to the appellants.

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.
