Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the housing provision for a mixed and balanced community in the area with particular regard to family accommodation
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of the appeal site, neighbouring properties and residents in the surrounding area, with regard to noise and disturbance, property upkeep, waste disposal, on street parking and other occupancy matters
What decided it
The appeal scheme would harm housing provision for a mixed and balanced community by adding to an already excessive concentration of HMOs in the area, and would create an over-intensive use of the site with substandard living conditions in the annexe, conflicting with the development plan policies.
