HAVE YOUR SAY

Consultation on proposed controls on HMO Conversions in Filton, Stoke Park and Cheswick wards.

Have your say – Share your views on our proposal to bring new HMOs (houses in multiple occupation) into the planning system in Stoke Park & Cheswick ward and to the east of Southmead Road and Gloucestershire Road North in Filton. Our proposed Article 4 direction means that conversion of homes to HMOs in these areas would require planning permission, which for smaller conversions, under national planning law, they currently do not.

CONSULTATION PERIOD The consultation on the proposals runs for six weeks from  7 February until 21 March 2022.

LEARN MORE AND COMMENT Visit the South Gloucestershire Council website to see details of the proposals, the supporting material and, to make comments.  https://beta.southglos.gov.uk/ planning-policy-guidance

SUBMITTING COMMENTS All comments must be received no later than  21 March 2022. All representations will be publicly available. Where possible, South Gloucestershire Council encourages people to comment online. If you have questions during the consultation period, contact the  Policy.consultation@southglos.gov.uk

AFTER THE CONSULTATION All the comments received will be reviewed, and a recommendation will be put forward whether to proceed with the decision to make the Article 4 Directions. Further details and the timetable will be published on the South Gloucestershire Council website.
