The tier sentence ¶13

“local services and facilities including a”

Summary

A C3-to-C4 supported-housing HMO in a Coventry terrace was dismissed. The appellant had not shown the HMO would avoid a harmful concentration, or that parking and visitor demand could be absorbed on a full street. Under S4, the P3 and TR6(4) conflicts were described as "very substantial harm". That outweighed a supported-housing benefit whose need was not evidenced (DL ¶20-22).
