Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the mix and balance of housing in the area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with regard to the potential for noise and disturbance and the availability of on-street parking

What decided it

The proposal would exacerbate an existing over-concentration of HMOs in the area (10.8% against a 10% threshold) and result in loss of family housing at a time of identified need, while also creating potential for noise and disturbance to neighbouring occupiers through the more intensive use characteristic of HMOs.
