Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- Having considered the submitted information, on the balance of probability, the proposed development as described within the submission would not result in a material change of use and as such would not be considered as 'development' as defined in Section 55(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended), given the existing use of the site as a dwellinghouse (Class C3(a)), therefore no planning permission would be required.
