Members are reminded that any reasons for refusal must be made in accordance with the Development Plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. With regards to the concentration of HMOs in the locality, this matter and the impact of the proposal on the character of the area is covered in detail at paragraphs 6.7-6.9 of the officer’s original report. This identifies that along a 260m stretch of Hamstead there is only 1 property which has a HMO Licence. Whilst it is recognised that there might be other HMOs that do not require a licence or planning permission, this evaluation is based on the data that is available to officers. The provision of 3 HMOs (the existing HMO and proposals at nos. 144 and 146) along this stretch of Hamstead Road is not considered to represent an unacceptable overconcentration of such accommodation that would adversely impact on the residential character of the area, residential amenity, community cohesion and housing mix. Members’ attention is also drawn to a recently allowed appeal for the change of use from a Childrens Day Nursery to a 9 room HMO at 252 Short Heath Road where the appellant’s applicant for costs was also allowed. In considering the impact on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, the Inspector’s decision identifies that reference had been made to there being other HMOs in the area, though the Inspector could only identify on the site visit 1 other property being occupied as a HMO in the vicinity of the appeal premises. The inspector concluded that on the evidence available that there is no undue concentration of HMOs and the proposal would not adversely affect the area’s residential character. In light of the evidence available with regard to the current application site, it is officers’ view that a reason for refusal on this ground would not be defendable. With regard to impact on crime and lack of outdoor amenity space, which have also been covered in the original report, officers consider that the original recommendation to grant planning consent with conditions is appropriate; however if Members remain minded to refuse the application then the following reasons for refusal are suggested: Page 1 of 9 • The development does not provide private amenity space within the site and as such constitutes a poor quality living environment for the occupants. The proposal is therefore contrary to the NPPF, Policies PG3 and TP27 of the Birmingham Development Plan 2017, Saved Policies 8.23-8.25 of the Birmingham Unitary Development Plan 2005 and Specific Needs Residential Uses SPG. • The development would result in an increase in crime and/or an increase in the fear of crime that would undermine the quality of life of local residents. The proposal is therefore contrary to the NPPF and Policy PG3 of the Birmingham Development Plan 2017. 1. Proposal 1.1. Consent is sought for the retention of a change of use from dental surgery (Use Class D1) to 1 no. 2 bedroom self-contained flat (Use Class C3) and 8-bed HMO (Sui Generis) at 144 Hamstead Road, Handsworth. 1.2. The internal layout of the proposal is as follows: • Ground floor: 1 x 2 bed self-contained flat comprising kitchen, bathroom, lounge and bedroom with gross internal area of 59sqm. - 2 x HMO bedrooms with room sizes ranging between 12.3 to 16.1sqm, communal lounge (27sqm) and 2 bathrooms. • First floor: lounge (10.3sqm), kitchen (15.6sqm), 2 x HMO bedrooms with room sizes of ranging from 10.1sqm to 18.5sqm. Bedroom 3 is ensuite and a separate bathroom. • Second floor: 4 x HMO bedrooms ranging between 9.6sqm and 18.3sqm and a separate bathroom. 1.3 Two parking spaces will be provided to the front and a further four spaces within the rear courtyard. 1.4 The previous planning proposal was refused on the basis of its unacceptable internal layout and amenity for future occupiers of the proposed development (2018/04002/PA). 1.5 The application has been submitted in conjunction with the adjacent property no.146 (ref: 2019/03129/PA) for a change of use from dental surgery to a 14 bedroom HMO, which can be found elsewhere on this agenda. 1.6 Link to Documents 2. Site & Surroundings 2.1. The application site comprises of a three storey property with link at first floor to No. 146 Hamstead Road. The premise is a former dental/medical treatment centre (Use Class D1). The application site is located within a predominantly residential area and many of the large semi-detached and detached houses along this frontage have been converted to flats. 2.2. Properties are reminiscent of substantially sized detached and semi-detached Victorian properties which are setback from the highway with shallow boundary walls along the stretch of the application site. On the opposite side of the road there is Welford Primary School and further residential dwellings mainly made up groups of Page 2 of 9 post-war terraces. There is a mixture of residential through family occupied dwellings as well properties which have been converted into flats. 2.3. Site Location & Street View 3. Planning History 3.1. 2018/04002/PA – Change of use from dental surgery (Use Class D1) to 2 no. self- contained flats (Use Class C3) and 8 bedroom HMO (Sui Generis) – Refused. 3.2 28/01/2009 - 2008/06549/PA - Installation of disabled access ramp at rear - Approved subject to conditions. 3.3. 05/07/2007 - 2007/02782/PA – Display of 1 no. double sided non illuminated freestanding totem sign APPROVE: Display of externally illuminated signage and banner to front – Part approved/refused. 3.4 12/07/2001 - 2001/01231/PA - Change of use of part of premises from school to five flats, alterations and extensions at side and rear to form car port, conservatory and balcony area – Approved with conditions. 3.5 1999/03417/PA - Change of use to residential care home for children with learning disorders – Approved 3.6 28/06/1973 – 35695001 - Extension to preparatory school cloakroom & storage Approved. 3.7 10/08/1972 – 35695000 - Change of use to school annexe with dining room Approved. 3.8 2018/1019/ENF - Alleged unauthorised change of use – current case.

    aberdeen3-34973_1 Summary In August 2007, Mr Harry McNab of Bancon Developments Ltd, commissioned Alison Cameron of Aberdeen City Council Archaeology Unit to conduct an archaeological evaluation on the site of a proposed development at Stoneywood Terrace, Aberdeen. No archaeological features were discovered during the evaluation; however, it was not possible to evaluate the western edge of site (the area of greatest archaeological potential) due to the presence of a grove of mature beech trees. This report recommends that the clients notify Aberdeen City Council Archaeology Unit prior to any future groundworks within this area, to allow an evaluation trench to be dug (if appropriate) to determine the possible location of the Aberdeenshire canal.. 1. Introduction and Background aberdeen3-35013_1 Summary In February 2007, Grampian Developments Ltd commissioned Aberdeen City Council Archaeology Unit to carry out an Archaeological Watching Brief on the site of a proposed development at Caberstone House, 47 Belmont Street, Aberdeen.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.
