Planning & licensing
Every planning application and licensing notice in Kingstanding, Oscott and Perry Common, from Birmingham City Council. We explain what each one is and when you can comment. We don’t tell you whether to support or oppose it: that’s up to you.
Applications Birmingham City Council registered in the last 7 days.
Nothing at the moment.
Comment periods ending in the next two weeks.
A house in multiple occupation (HMO) is a home shared by three or more people who aren’t one household and who share a kitchen or bathroom. Birmingham City Council says you must get planning permission before converting a property into an HMO, and landlords of many HMOs also need an HMO licence from the council’s Private Rented Services.
Licence reviews published by the council, and licence applications our councillors have added. Licensing is decided separately from planning, by the council’s Licensing team and Sub-Committee.
New licence applications are listed on the council’s Licensing Act 2003 public register, and shown on a blue notice at the premises.
Major applications are the larger ones: generally 10 or more homes, 1,000 square metres or more of new floor space, or a large site. We flag them from the description, so a few may be missed or included by mistake.
Everything within a kilometre of a postcode.
Decided in the last 60 days.
