Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would result in an over-concentration of Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) in the area, and if so, the effect that this would have on the character of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of residents of the immediate adjacent neighbouring property

What decided it

The proposal would exacerbate an already over-concentrated area of HMOs and erode the traditional residential character of the area, conflicting with Policy 8 of the development plan, and this harm was not outweighed by the absence of amenity impacts on neighbours.
