Planning Decision

Why it was refused

  1. The proposal would also result in an unacceptable concentration of Houses in Multiple Occupation within the immediate frontage, with more than one in five units in non-family use, including an existing HMO at 300 Hertford Road. This represents a breach of the "1 in 5" criterion of Policy DMD5 of Enfield's Development Management Document (2014) and is considered to result in a clear erosion of the established residential character of the area.

From the council's decision notice.
