Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the HMO on the supply of family sized dwellings in the Borough, having regard to the objectives of the relevant development plan policies
  • The living conditions of existing and future occupiers, having regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The loss of this single family house was unlikely to have a significant adverse impact on the Borough's family housing stock, and the HMO use would not materially harm the living conditions of existing or future occupiers.
