Why it was refused

  1. The proposed change of use would result in the loss of a Class C3 dwellinghouse suitable for family occupation. The development is therefore contrary to Policy 8 of the ACS and Policies HO1 and HO2 of the LAPP.
  2. The proposal is likely to result in problems associated with noise and disturbance, property upkeep, increased parking pressures, waste disposal and a high turnover of occupants. These factors would be detrimental to both the amenities of neighbouring occupiers and the surrounding area in general, contrary to Policy 10 of the ACS and Policies DE1, DE2, HO6 and IN2 of the LAPP.

From the council's decision notice.
