Ms Dey, a chef by trade, had been informally involved in running the camping ground since 2009 before she took over management in July 2020. She became the official leaseholder on August 3 this year and said she just wanted to run the camping ground business but had inherited a problem ‘‘where everyone is on her case’’. Under the order, if the items remain on site after November 1, the council will be able to deem it ‘‘abandoned’’, remove it and recover the costs.
