Proposal
Change of Use from 5 Bed Residential Dwelling (C3) to 6 Bed HMO (C4).
Our Response

BPT does not object to the material changes proposed to this suburban property. However, we would like to strongly emphasise that the close, pedestrian proximity of Combe Park Pre-School and St Mary’s Catholic Primary School makes this an attractive and appropriate property for families. A change of use to a HMO would not serve the local demand for family housing in this area and would result in the loss of suitable family accommodation. Approval of this application would maintain an undesirable precedent and should therefore be resisted.
