Live/work units

Tenants of live/work units are not required to work in them, according to a recent county court ruling. In a decision that one landlord argued made a mockery of the planning law, a judge sitting in Central London County Court said the term live/work was vague and ambiguous and should be interpreted broadly to mean live and/or work. However this could mean that instead of placing conditions upon the live/work user, councils may be reluctant to grant planning permission in the first place.
