Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the mix and supply of housing, having regard to the level of Housing in Multiple Occupation (HMO) in the surrounding area including the effect on residential character and the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties

What decided it

The proposal would create a harmful concentration of HMOs with a single dwelling sandwiched between two HMOs, directly contravening Policy H10 Criteria 3 and causing unacceptable cumulative noise and disturbance to neighbouring occupiers.
