Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the change of use to a house in multiple occupation on the housing mix in the area
  • The effect of the change of use to a house in multiple occupation on living conditions

What decided it

The change of use undermines sustainable, inclusive, and mixed communities in an area with a significant concentration of HMOs and student households, contrary to development plan policies, and no justified exception to normal policy approaches has been demonstrated.
