HMO: Plans for accommodation above German Doner Kebab have been rejected
A scheme to turn a nine-bedroom HMO above a city takeaway into a smaller HMO plus a number of self-contained flats has been rejected.
Developers Greyfriars Estates applied for retrospective planning permission having already made changes to the first, second and third floors above German Doner Kebab in The Foregate.
They changed the layout of the building to become five individual flats and a four-bedroom HMO.
According to planning documents, there is already authorisation for a six-bedroom HMO on the site.
Planners granted listed building consent but refused planning permission, saying the proposed flats would be too small, resulting in a “poor quality of residential accommodation for future occupiers”.
