HMO meeting in the Capital
A MEETING will be held this week to discuss the issue of affordable student housing in Edinburgh.
The city council has guidelines on the number of houses of multiple occupancy (HMO) licences approved in areas such as Marchmont, Southside and Tollcross, which suggest "sensitive areas" should have no more than 30 per cent of flats being shared by students or young professionals.
Green councillor Alison Johnstone will address the meeting on Thursday at 7pm in the Potterow Chaplaincy, Bristo Square.
