13 Rookwood Crescent Osmondthorpe Leeds LS9 0NE

1. 1.The Local Planning Authority considers that the proposed change of use from a dwelling house (Use Class C3) to short-term letting accommodation (Sui Generis) would, by reason of its transient nature, result in the frequent turnover of guest occupiers and a materially different pattern of occupation to that associated with a conventional dwelling house. The use would generate increased comings and goings, irregular arrival and departure times, associated vehicle movements, servicing visits and activity immediately adjacent to neighbouring residential properties, resulting in unacceptable noise and disturbance harmful to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers. The Local Planning Authority is not satisfied that the submitted Management Plan, occupancy controls or other management measures would adequately prevent or mitigate the identified harm, as such measures are largely reactive in nature and do not overcome the inherent impacts arising from the repeated turnover of guests and transient occupation of the property. Accordingly, the proposal would result in unacceptable harm to residential amenity and would be contrary to Policy P10 of the Leeds Core Strategy (as amended), Saved Policy GP5 of the Leeds Unitary Development Plan Review (2006), and paragraph 135(f) of the National Planning Policy Framework, which collectively seek to ensure that development provides and safeguards a high standard of amenity for existing occupiers.

From the council's decision notice.
