Plans for bedsits in Birkdale have been approved despite fears over “friends with benefits” increasing the amount of comings and goings at the property.
The question arose at a meeting of Sefton Council’s planning committee where proposals for a seven bedroom house of multiple occupation (HMO) at Bury Road were up for discussion.
The application by St David Birkdale Ltd would involve the partial change of use of a former shop to create the bedsits – although space for a smaller shop would be retained.
