Update report tabled.
Councillor Stephanie Eaton left the meeting room for the duration of this item only.
On a vote of 0 in favour of the Officer recommendation, 5 against and 2 abstentions, the Committee RESOLVED:
That the Officer recommendation to grant planning permission (PA/11/3617) at Skylines Village, Limeharbour, London BE NOT ACCEPTED for proposed demolition of all existing buildings within Skylines Village and the erection of buildings with heights varying from 2 to 50 storeys.
The Committee were minded to refuse the application due to concerns over:
- Height;
- Density in relation to the London Plan;
- Daylight and sunlight impact to the surrounding properties;
- Lack of child play space on site, particularly for the 11-15 age range;
- Impact on health services generally and, in particular, the existing drug services on site;
- Loss of existing employment uses on site.
In accordance with Development Procedural Rules, the application was DEFERRED to enable Officers to prepare a supplementary report to a future meeting of the Committee, setting out proposed detailed reasons for refusal, along with the implications of the decision.
(The Members that voted on this item were Councillors Helal Abbas, Bill Turner, Shahed Ali, Zara Davis, Judith Gardiner, Carlo Gibbs, Dr Emma Jones)
