Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the condition is reasonable and necessary in the interests of the living conditions of existing occupiers of nearby dwellinghouses

What decided it

A restriction on change of use to Class C4 HMOs is reasonable and necessary to enable proper assessment of effects on neighbouring living conditions and to prevent unacceptable harm from intensified use, and the condition was varied to be more precisely worded.
