FOR PLANNING APPLICATIONS SUB COMMITTEE DATED 12/10/2006

Location: Land Rear Of 27 - 47 Cecile Park N8

Proposal: Conservation Area Consent for the demolition of existing 39 garages and erection of 5 x 2 storey three bedroom houses with associated landscaping and 10 no. parking spaces.

Recommendation: Grant subject to conditions & S106 Legal Agreement.

Decision: Refuse

Drawing No.s: 2873 P01 rev B, P02 rev B

Reason:

1. In the absence of an approved scheme for the permanent redevelopment of the site, the demolition of the existing lock-up garages would result in the site having a derelict appearance which would detract from the appearance of the Crouch End Conservation Area and would thus be contrary to Policy CSV 7 of the Haringey Unitary Development Plan 2006.
