PLANS to vary a former health and sweetness centre right into a 15-bedroom home in a number of occupancy (HMO) are set to return beneath the highlight.
A change-of-use software to transform a web site on Ashton Road in Bardsley right into a HMO can be determined by Oldham Council’s planning committee on Wednesday night.
The proposals have attracted 212 objections with residents complaining about considerations over “insufficient parking”, the “proliferation” of HMOs within the space.
The potential improve in crime and harm to the character of the realm are also worries cited in objections.
But in a report forward of the assembly, the council is recommending that the applying ought to be permitted.
The native authority mentioned the residents are “unlikely to personal a personal car” and the location is near “public transport choices”.
There isn’t any “definitive proof” of anti-social behaviour issues and no proof the variety of HMOs within the Medlock Vale ward are of “such magnitude” that it has “resulted in a cloth change on the character of the native space”, the council mentioned.
In conclusion, the council added: “The proposal would carry an under-utilised web site again into energetic use.”
At the identical assembly, a reserved issues software for a part of a significant improvement in Chadderton have been earmarked for approval.
The part, which is a part of a masterplan that features a employment-led combined use improvement, includes a proposed linear park to the north of Foxdenton Lane.
No objections have been made.
A council report states: “The proposed improvement is appropriate.
The improvement will ship a big linear Park that can be usable, accessible and fashionable.”
Another software which can be put beneath the microscope is a Grade II listed constructing on Tunstead Lane in Greenfield.
The plans, which have been supported by Saddleworth Parish Council, search to construct a two-storey rear extension.
But Oldham Council is recommending the plans to be refused and says the deliberate alterations are “thought of to trigger hurt to the character of the listed constructing by advantage of the 2 storey, which might obscure views of the historic a part of the constructing”.
