Housing Policy 13
Requires for abandoned rural dwellings: a) at least three walls standing to eaves level and structurally capable of retention; b) existing usable track; c) water/electricity available. Officer found only front wall and partial annex intact post-unauthorised works, failing a); b) and c) met via prior approval. Tension in interpreting engineer's reports assuming three walls retainable pre-collapse versus post-demolition reality; policy bars more ruinous rebuilds to prevent new dwellings disguised as renovations.
