We call on Coventry City Council to reject Planning Application HH/2016/1759, to convert numbers 16,18 and 20 Severn Road into Houses in Multiple occupation (HMO) and includes the erection of a two-storey rear extension and loft conversion creating a combined total of 24 bedrooms.<br />
<br />
This area contains high numbers of student accommodation, which includes HMOs and purpose built student flats. Adding further HMOs, particularly of such size, will exacerbate the on-going issues of noise nuisance, littering, lack of parking and anti-social behaviour incidents.
