Retrospective Plans to Convert Eastbourne Residence into HMO Refused
The council did not allow the plan. The plan aimed to turn one home into a room block. The home would hold eight rooms. One room got its own bath. The other rooms share one small bath on the top floor. The plan did not meet the room rules.
Concerns Over Accommodation Standards
The council saw faults in the plan. The plan gave low-grade rooms. The back rooms face a small view. A narrow garden lies behind them. A bike space sits near one room. The bike space may disturb a room next door.
Local Policy Considerations
The plan did not match town rules. The plan did not meet state rules. Four locals wrote to stop it. The town and state rules keep each room safe and sound.
Conclusion
The council did not allow the plan. Persons who own homes must fix their change plans. They must work with strict rules. This case shows that a change in a home must join room care with rule care.
