00:00Plans to convert a house in Wolverhampton into a six-bedroom house in multiple occupation
00:06could still go ahead, despite being refused earlier this year.
00:10City of Wolverhampton Council rejected the proposal for the property in Woden Road,
00:15saying it failed to promote a safe and accessible environment and could worsen existing problems in the area.
00:22Planners cited concerns about crime, noise and pressure on local services.
00:28West Midlands Police also objected, warning of possible cumulative impacts on what they described as a stable, family-oriented street.
00:36The developer has now appealed to the Planning Inspectorate, meaning a government-appointed inspector will make the final decision in
00:43the case.
