12^th August 2020:

Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application

Comment Reasons:

- Because of the Additional Traffic

- Noise

- Residential Amenity

- Traffic or Highways

Comment: The impact of this HMO on the surrounding residents, community and properties could be significant due to the nature and intensification of occupation on this site:

- Potential for noise and other environmental disturbance including waste management issues

- Inadequate provision of parking and consequential impact to on street parking.

- Impact on community resources such as schools and health facilities due to the loss of family accommodation

It would also be helpful if the officer report could outline the impact of this being granted would have on the councils ability to meet its commitments within city plan part one, especially the requirements and the council's ability to meet its housing needs assessment. I would ask that officers check the current and previously held licensing registers to check their impact on the 10% rule is properly taken into consideration.

Should the recommendation on this application be to approve I would like this application to come to committee please. Should the committee be minded to approve this application I would ask them to consider the removal of permitted development rights to ensure that any subsequent enlargement or alteration be fully considered before being approved for development on this site.
