RECOMMENDATION: grant conservation area consent.

The Committee considered a report, previously circulated, on the application to grant Conservation Area Consent for the demolition of the existing property at 19 Lansdowne Road N10 2AX and erection of a new 3 storey dwelling. The report set out details of the proposal, the site and surroundings, planning history, relevant planning policy, consultation and responses, analysis, equalities and human rights implications and recommended to grant Conservation Area Consent subject to conditions.

The Chair moved the recommendations of the report and it was:
