What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Cambridge City Council approved measures requiring all houses of multiple occupancy (HMOs) to seek full planning permission. This changes current rules that allow HMOs for six or fewer residents under permitted development. The new direction will take effect after a 12-month waiting period and a public consultation.
