®Planning appeal decision
131 York Avenue, Hayes, UB3 2TR
Planning appeal 3327485 at 131 York Avenue, Hayes, UB3 2TR (London Borough of Hillingdon) was dismissed on 18 July 2024 by Inspector Goldberg V, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of adjoining residential properties, with particular reference to noise and disturbance.
‘This building is extended recently. It is total 6-bedroom property now. Two Rooms are large enough for couples and one loft room is got separate bathroom. Three rooms are for single person use only. I am getting HMO permission for 6 people only, so I been told to apply this planning content if I want to add more people in my HMO Licence. I want to apply for 9 to 10 people permission’
