Old Town: A revamped plan to change 34 Dover Street to an eight-person house of multiple occupation has been turned down.
Developer Phillip Brett had a similar application turned down in March 2020. It included a bid for retrospective permission for an existing two-storey rear extension – meaning the addition was put up without the relevant consent – as well as a new permission for a further single-storey extension.
But officers have turned down the proposal because of lack of parking. The decision said: “Inadequate provision is made for the parking of cars on the site, with a consequent risk that new residents will seek to park on the highway to the detriment of highway safety.
