A recent planning application being dealt with by Northumberland County Council for the empty former Pal Joey shop in Blyth , is being strongly questioned on social media by residents who are set against another home of multiple occupancy, being developed in their town.
An e-petition has started that will be considered by the council from the petitioners against the 17 bedroom home which is subject to criticism on social media due to the number of other HMO properties being used to house those on bail or awaiting sentencing.
The developer of this particular home, Holy Eagle property ltd., has a number of other similar homes in Northumberland one of which inCarlton Street
The Council do have a policy to develop quality housing in It’s town centres. Those who are questioning this development do not believe this is a quality development as described in the Councils new Local Plan and are challenging it in their hundreds.
The experience of the people who live, work and shop inBlyth with Homes of Multiple Occupancy is that they are filled with those who have great social need and are asked to leave the premises during the day to wander the streets, sometimes causing problems for shoppers and visitors to the town.
Concerns that another Home of Multiple Occupancy sited in Blyth could lead to a rise in the fear of crime, drive down the shopping experience in Blyth Town Centre the profile of which the local Town Council is trying desperately to raise and decrease further the reputation of Northumberland County Council in the eyes of the general public inBlyth .
