Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development achieves a balanced and sustainable community
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, with reference to noise and disturbance, an intensification in vehicle parking in the surrounding area, periods when the property is vacant outside of term-time, and property maintenance including waste disposal
What decided it
The development conflicts with local plan policies HO2 and HO6 by converting a family dwelling to an HMO in an area already significantly concentrated with student accommodation, and causes material harm to neighbouring living conditions through noise and parking intensification.
