HMO Approved Despite 100 Objections | Manchester News

Salford Council has approved an eight-person HMO on Mesne Lea Road despite 100 neighbor objections — turning a family home into multiple rental units with five ground-floor and three upstairs bedrooms, plus bike parking and a laundry room. Developers claim it won’t affect roads or the nearby school, but locals fear traffic, parking, and the loss of neighborhood character. Even MP Yasmin Qureshi called the decision “not right,” citing highway safety and proximity to a busy primary school. While the council moved forward with conditions, residents demand stronger assurances — especially for children’s safety — as the community braces for change.
