Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers having particular regard to noise, disturbance and the potential for anti-social behaviour

What decided it

The fallback position of the property becoming a 6-resident HMO without planning permission, combined with the professional management and control measures proposed, meant the additional 2 residents would not cause unacceptable harm to neighbouring living conditions.

The benefits of providing needed supported housing accommodation with professional management and control measures outweighed the concerns about potential noise, disturbance and anti-social behaviour, particularly when weighed against the fallback position of an unmanaged HMO.
