Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the provision of family sized accommodation
  • the living conditions of future residents with particular regard to the standard of accommodation
  • the living conditions of neighbours with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would conflict with development plan policies seeking to retain family-sized accommodation and would provide poor living conditions for future HMO occupants, with no material considerations indicating the decision should be made otherwise.
