Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the implications of the proposal for the achievement of balanced communities, with particular reference to the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The existing low concentration of HMOs in the ward (1.04%) and the minimal external changes to the building's appearance meant the proposal would not harm character or amenity, allowing it to accord with the development plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy H6(e), Policy H6(c), Policy SD4(j), Policy SD4(k), Policy SD4(b)
