Cllr David Taylor has objected to a planning application aimed at converting a home in Mawney Road, Romford, into an eight-bed house of multiple occupation (HMO). The proposed layout includes four two-person bedrooms across three floors, featuring a shared kitchen and bathroom. Taylor highlighted existing issues in the area, which already has five HMOs, asserting that the proposed development would exacerbate road congestion and compromise local living conditions. He stresses the importance of preserving family homes and opposes the trend of transforming residences into overcrowded accommodations without improving infrastructure.
Cllr David Taylor expressed concerns about the application for an eight-bed HMO at 41 Mawney Road, citing overcrowding and traffic issues in an already busy area.
The proposed house would feature four two-person bedrooms over three stories, along with shared kitchen, communal areas, and bathroom facilities.
Cllr Taylor argued that the addition of HMOs is over-densifying Mawney Road and adversely affecting local infrastructure and quality of life.
He emphasized the need to preserve family homes in Havering, stating that they should not be transformed into small, overcrowded living spaces.
