A FURTHER MOTION PROPOSED BY COUNCILLOR CLAISSE AND SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR CUNIO “THAT THE APPLICATION BE REFUSED FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS” WAS CARRIED
Reason for Refusal - Unacceptable Intensification of use
The change of use of the property from a 5 bedroom C4 house in multiple occupation to a 7 bedroom house in multiple occupation (HMO) will result in an unacceptable intensification in the use of the property. This would be to the detriment of the character of the area and the amenity of nearby residents by reason of increased additional general activity/noise/disturbance and taking into account the number of existing HMO’s already in the area (cumulative impact). The proposal is therefore contrary Policies SDP1 (i), SDP7 (v) and H4 (i) and (ii) of the City of Southampton Local Plan Review (March 2006) and policy CS16 (3) of the Local Development Framework Core Strategy (January 2010).
RECORDED VOTE: FOR: Councillors Cunio, Claisse and L Harris AGAINST: Councillor Jones and Mrs Blatchford ABSTAINED: Councillor Thomas
RESOLVED that planning permission be refused for the reasons set out above. |
