FOR PLANNING COMMITTEE DATED 03/03/2008

Location: 596 - 606 High Road N17

Proposal: Conservation Area Consent for demolition of existing buildings and erection of part 3 / part 4 storey buildings to provide 186 sqm of A1 / A2 / A3 floor space and 48 residential units together with formation of new vehicle access to Tottenham High Road.

Recommendation: Refuse Consent

Drawing No’s: 0557(PL)001, 002, 009A, 010A, 011A, 012A, 110A, 111A, 112A, 113A, 114A, 115A, 116A, 200A, 300A, 301A, 302A, 303A, 304A, 305A, 306A, 400, 401 & 402.

Reason:

1.       The proposed demolition of the buildings would be premature in that the Local Planning Authority has not received an application and / or granted planning permission for a suitable replacement development.  Premature demolition would not be in the interests of preserving the character and appearance of the Scotland Green Conservation Area contrary to Policy CSV7 'Demolition in Conservation Areas' of the Unitary Development Plan 2006.
