Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the living conditions of existing occupiers of nearby properties, with particular regard to noise and disturbance, waste generation and parking demand
What decided it
The existing HMO use already generates activity patterns different from family occupation, and the addition of only two residents would not materially worsen effects on neighbours' living conditions regarding noise, waste, or parking.

- Development plan policies
- Policy H11Policy DM1Policy SP1
