Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of adjacent occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance at 2 Southlea Avenue

What decided it

The specific site context and layout of the host property relative to the adjacent property at 2 Southlea Avenue, combined with the absence of cogent evidence that a neighbouring property is lawfully an HMO, meant the proposal would not conflict with the purpose of Policy H6 to prevent unacceptable adverse impacts on amenity.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy H6Policy BE3

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
