Question submitted by: Carmel Boyhan Irvine

 

The number of HMOs within 100m radius of 95 Durnford Street is 16.7%,21 HMO buildings in total number of 131 (photos supplied) not 3 in 189, according to land registry, electoral role and PCC Planning website information. Can you confirm that this exceeds the 10% threshold of Policy DEV11?

Response: Councillor Bill Stevens Planning Committee Chair

 

The Planning Authority calculates that the percentage of HMOs, as opposed to other accommodation such as self-contained flats, within a 100m radius of 95 Durnford Street is:

 

5.5% if the Core Strategy methodology is used

1.59% if the Joint Local Plan methodology is used.

 

These figures are based on the most up to date evidence available to the Planning Authority.

 

Therefore it is considered that the 10% threshold outlined in DEV11 has not been exceeded.

 

Further debate on this point may occur when the current planning application is referred back to Planning Committee.
