Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the HMO density, living conditions, parking and waste arrangements were acceptable subject to conditions.
- Residents objected to HMO concentration, disturbance, parking, storage, loss of family housing and the property’s suitability.
- The committee granted permission with conditions, subject to amended plans and delegated authority, including changes to the boiler location.
