Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with regard to noise and disturbance
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupiers with regard to the provision of internal and external amenity space
What decided it
The proposal would result in only a modest increase in occupancy from 7 to 8 persons in an already-established HMO use, which would not materially increase noise and disturbance beyond current levels in a high-density residential area with existing commercial activity, and provides adequate internal and external amenity space meeting policy standards.
