HMO management plans
Sutton Council recently approved a larger House in Multiple Occupation, with its management plan considered during the application process.
Sutton Council's Planning Committee approved the conversion of a six-bedroom House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) to a ten-bedroom HMO at 16 Onslow Gardens, Wallington, on 7 October 2026. This decision allows the property to accommodate up to ten residents, despite objections from local residents and a call-in by Councillor Dave Tchil.
The approval of such a conversion implies the need for a robust management plan, which outlines how the House in Multiple Occupation will be managed. These plans typically detail maintenance, tenant vetting, and complaint resolution, and are often required by local authorities for HMOs.
