Council to Re-Run HMO Consultation after Finding Flaw

A council has decided to re-run its public consultation on rules controlling which homes can be converted into houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) after discovering a possible discrepancy with its online survey. Worcester City Council is urging everyone who responded to the previous consultation to do so again. The council agreed last year to make it a requirement for landlords to seek planning permission to convert a normal home into an HMO containing between three and six-beds. It is also proposed that no more than two properties next door to each other can be converted into HMOs. Read more on the WCC website.
