Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the mix and supply of housing, having regard to the level of HMOs in the surrounding area including the effect on residential character and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, in particular 26 Boardman Street
- whether or not the accommodation provides satisfactory living conditions for the occupiers of the property, with regard to the provision of appropriately sized bedrooms (bedroom six and bedroom seven)
What decided it
The development conflicts with Policy H10 because the appeal property would be immediately adjacent to more than one other HMO, resulting in cumulative harm to the residential character and living conditions of the neighbouring single dwelling at No. 26 Boardman Street.
Plan policies cited: Policy H1, Policy H10, Policy F3, Policy D5
