Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effects of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to noise and disturbance
- the living conditions of the occupiers of No 26 Woodcroft Road with regard to outlook and light and the occupiers of No 15 Bagot Street and 17 Bagot Street with regard to outlook and privacy
- the character and appearance of the host property
What decided it
The proposal would result in only a modest increase in occupancy of an already-established HMO use that would not generate materially different activity levels or unacceptable impacts on neighbouring living conditions, character and appearance, or local facilities.
