Planning restrictions on HMOs set to be extended across the city
Planning restrictions on HMOs set to be extended across the city
Following pressure from local residents, the 50 bus service in Hollingdean will run more frequently from April.
Changes made in September last year introduced a new 50U service running from Hollingdean to the Lewes Road Sainsbury’s and on to the Falmer campuses.
Labour council candidates in wards near the Lewes Road are urging the council to do more to enforce regulations concerning Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMOs). Nationally, all HMOs have to be registered and licensed. In addition, in some wards, conversion to a new HMO requires planning permission. But some landlords and agencies are managing to bypass the regulations.
