Why it was refused

  1. The evidence submitted in respect of the existing use of the premises at 494 Tyburn Road, Birmingham, B24 8DY is not sufficiently precise and unambiguous to demonstrate on the balance of probability that the premises fall within Use Class E(c) (iii) and fall within the relevant scope of Schedule 2, Part 7, Class A of the General Permitted Development Order 2015 (as amended) for the purposes of the proposed extension. As such a Certificate of Lawfulness for the proposed single storey rear extension to existing ground floor premises to facilitate a secure storage space cannot be granted pursuant to Section 192 of the Town and County Planning Act 1990.

From the council's decision notice.
