## Resource

Kegworth’s quiet village charm is under siege as a controversial six-bed HMO for young professionals gets the green light, sparking fury among locals who fear their community is turning into a student-heavy zone. Despite parking chaos, emergency vehicle access issues, and councilors warning of a vanishing family atmosphere, the planning committee voted 9-2 to approve the conversion — prioritizing legal safety over community sentiment, as a draft plan to curb HMOs holds little sway in this high-stakes decision.
