Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the objective of maintaining balanced and sustainable communities and upon the living conditions of local residents, having regard to the concentration of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) in the area
What decided it
The proposal itself does not increase the number of bedrooms and there is no compelling evidence that it would directly result in an increase in occupiers, therefore it would not facilitate a material intensification of the lawful HMO use.
