Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the use on the supply of family housing
  • the living conditions of the appeal site's occupants with regard to the standard of accommodation
  • the living conditions of neighbouring occupants with regard to noise and disturbance
  • cycle parking provision

What decided it

The proposal results in an unacceptable net loss of family-sized dwelling for which there is identified need in Brent, contrary to Local Plan Policies DMP1 and BH10 and London Plan Policy H9, which cannot be outweighed by the provision of HMO and short-term letting accommodation.

Framework references: 135

Plan policies cited: Policy BH10, Policy BH7, Policy DMP1, Policy H9, Policy D6, Policy BT1, Policy T5
