All documents associated with this application can be found at the following link:-
Planning Officer: Jamie Leadbeater Minutes: The Committee had before it a report by the Interim Head of Planning and Sustainable Development, which recommended:-
That the application for the change of use of ground floor flat to House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO), the erection of single storey extension associated to the proposed HMO, extension at first floor level to provide additional accommodation to existing first floor flat and the erection of the bike and bin stores in the rear garden at 39/41 University Road, be approved subject to the following conditions:-

Reason: in the interests of the character and general amenity of the Old Aberdeen Conservation Area.
ADVISORY NOTE FOR APPLICANT
Despite the granting of planning permission to use the ground floor flat as a HMO, the applicant/owner of the premises would still be required to apply and obtain a variation to their existing HMO license from the Council before this use can legally be implemented.
The Committee heard from Jamie Leadbeater, Planner, who spoke in furtherance of the application and answered various questions from Members. In regards to parking, Mark Wilkie explained that a HMO did not qualify for any additional parking permits and would only have two parking permits per flat. The permits were allocated on a first come first served basis so would not increase the amount of cars parking at the property.
The Convener, seconded by the Vice Convener moved:- That the application be approved, in line with the recommendation contained within the report.
Councillor McLellan, seconded by Councillor Alphonse, moved as an amendment:- That the application be refused due to the detrimental impact on the residential amenity of the area and also concerns for the existing neighbours.
On a division, there voted:- for the motion (13) – the Convener and Vice Convener; the Depute Provost Councillor Donnelly and Councillors Allan, Copland, Cormie, Lesley Dunbar, Hutchison, John, Mackenzie, Malik, Sellar and Sandy Stuart; for the amendment (4) – Councillors Alphonse, Greig, McLellan and Wheeler.
The Committee resolved:- to adopt the motion and therefore approve the application conditionally.
