- Cryan M
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the supply of family housing
- Whether the proposed HMO would provide acceptable living conditions for occupiers, with particular regard to the amount of bedroom space, and the adequacy of kitchen and bathroom/toilet facilities
What decided it
The property's floor area of under 96m² fails to meet the 120m² threshold in Policy DM17(a), and the proposed HMO would not provide acceptable living conditions due to inadequate bedroom space and kitchen facilities for four independent residents.
Plan policies cited: Policy DM17, Policy SP2, Policy DM10, Policy H8, Policy DM12
