Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character of the area with particular regard to the number of Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) in the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers
What decided it
The over-concentration of HMOs in the area, evidenced by approximately 30% of properties within 100 metres being HMOs and the creation of 5 consecutive HMOs, would harm the character of the area and living conditions of neighbouring occupiers in conflict with the development plan and SPD guidance.
