HO8 HOSTELS AND HOUSES IN MULTIPLE OCCUPATION

The acceptability of planning applications for new houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) or hostels or for the loss of existing HMOs or hostels will be considered in relation to the following criteria:

  • the quality of the accommodation that is proposed or might be lost;
  • the impact of the accommodation on the locality; and
  • the local need for the proposed or existing HMO or hostel accommodation.
