Agenda item

1 STATION SQUARE, STATION ROAD, N17 9JZ

Proposal: Demolition of existing buildings and erection of a building providing 434 sq.m.  (GEA) of commercial floorspace (Class A1/A3), 128 residential units (117 shared ownership units) (Class C3), landscaped amenity space, cycle parking and all structural and associated works.

Decision:

RESOLVED that planning permission be granted subject to conditions and signing of s106 Legal Agreement.

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report on the application to grant planning permission for the demolition of existing buildings and erection of a building providing 434 sq.m. (GEA) of commercial floorspace (Class A1/A3), 128 residential units (117 shared ownership units) (Class C3), landscaped amenity space, cycle parking and all structural and associated works.

 

The Planning Officer gave a short presentation highlighting the key aspects of the report.

 

The Committee raised a number of questions and issues, responses to which are summarised as follows:

-           The proposal on waste management had changed to increase the size of the bin store, following the objections made by the Waste Management Team.

-           Wind modelling had been carried out on the initial development, however once other developments were in place, the conditions would likely improve.

-           In relation to wheelchair access, the site had step free access and was easily connected to Tottenham Hale station, which was an accessible station.

-           The s106 money available for use in Down Lane Park would be used on a number of different projects identified in the green open space strategy.

-           The site was not in a Controlled Parking Zone, but the surrounding areas were, and it was expected that a large proportion of residents would use public transport.  There would be a large loading bay on Station Road and Hale Road, and this could be used by delivery vehicles accessing the site.

-           Bike parking was provided on the 1st and 2nd floor, using a two tiered parking system.

-           The architects had met with the Quality Review Panel on three occasions and had significantly changed and sculpted the scheme through this process.  The site was a challenging one, however, the architects did not feel that the scheme had been constrained due to this.

 

The Chair moved the recommendation and following a vote, it was

 

RESOLVED

Connections are not permitted for the removal of groundwater. Where the developer proposes to discharge to a public sewer, prior approval from Thames Water Developer Services will be required. The contact number is 0800 009 3921.

 

7)        Public Sewer Crossing – Approval required for building, extension or underpinning within 3 metres. (Thames Water).

In order to protect public sewers and to ensure that Thames Water can gain access to those sewers for future repair and maintenance, approval should be sought from Thames Water where the erection of a building or an extension to a building or underpinning work would be over the line of, or would come within 3 metres of, a public sewer.

INFORMATIVE: Thames Water will aim to provide customers with a minimum pressure of 10m head (approx 1 bar) and a flow rate of 9 litres/minute at the point where it leaves Thames Waters pipes.  The developer should take account of this minimum pressure in the design of the proposed development.

iv)       That, in the absence of the agreement referred to in resolution (i) above being completed within the time period provided for in resolution (ii) above, the planning permission be refused for the following reasons:

 

          i.             In the absence of a legal agreement securing 1) the provision of on-site affordable housing 2) a viability review mechanism 3) marketing of the scheme to local residents on targeted incomes, and 4) the recycling of grant funding, the scheme would fail to foster mixed and balanced neighbourhoods where people choose to live, and which meet the housing aspirations of Haringey’s residents. The scheme would not make full use of Haringey’s capacity for housing to meet targeted delivery of required homes.  As such, the proposal is contrary to London Plan Policies 3.9, 3.11 and 3.12, Strategic Policy SP2, and emerging DPD Policies DM 11 and DM 13, and emerging Policies AAP3 and TH4. 

 

         ii.             In the absence of a legal agreement securing local employment, the proposal would fail to facilitate training and employment opportunities for the local population.  The scheme would fail to contribute to the social regeneration of the area.  As such the proposal is contrary to Local Plan Policies SP8 and SP9, emerging Policy DM48 and emerging Policy AAP4.

 

        iii.             In the absence of legal agreement securing 1) residential and commercial Travel Plans, and Traffic Management Order (TMO) amendments to preclude the issue of parking permits, and 2) financial contributions toward off site cycle parking, travel plan monitoring, and car club provision, the proposal would have an unacceptable impact on the safe operation of the highway network, and give rise to overspill parking impacts and unsustainable modes of travel.  As such, the proposal would be contrary to London Plan policies 6.9, 6.11 and 6.13. Spatial Policy SP7, Saved UDP Policy UD3 and emerging Policy DM31 and emerging Policy AAP7.

 

        iv.             In the absence of a legal agreement securing 1) public realm enhancements 2) leisure facilities and soft landscaping improvements to local green spaces, the proposal would give rise to an illegible public realm, poorly detailed building elevations and poor quality residential access to local green spaces.  As such, the proposal would be contrary to London Plan policies 7.1, 7.4, 7.6, 7.18, Strategic Policies SP11 and SP13 and emerging Policies DM1, DM3, DM19 and DM20, and emerging Policies AAP6, AAP9, TH1 and TH4.

 

         v.             In the absence of a legal agreement securing an obligation to modify the scheme in the event additional wind modelling demonstrates planning harm, the development will give rise to a structure that will impact the amenity of surrounding land and buildings contrary to London Plan Policies 7.6 and 7.7, Strategic Policy SP11, and emerging DPD Policies DM1 and DM6.

 

        vi.             In the absence of a legal agreement securing an Energy Plan to address a carbon offset payment requirement and demonstrate a connection to a future district energy network, the proposal would fail to mitigate the impacts of climate change.  As such, the proposal would be unsustainable and therefore contrary to London Plan Policy 5.2 and Strategic Policy SP4, and emerging DPD Policies DM 21, DM22 and emerging Policy TH4.

 

 

v)        In the event that the Planning Application is refused for the reasons set out in resolution (iv) above, the Head of Development Management (in consultation with the Chair of Planning sub-committee) is hereby authorised to approve any further application for planning permission which duplicates the Planning Application provided that:

 

          i.             There has not been any material change in circumstances in the relevant planning considerations, and

 

         ii.             The further application for planning permission is submitted to and approved by the Assistant Director within a period of not more than 12 months from the date of the said refusal, and

 

        iii.             The relevant parties shall have previously entered into the agreement contemplated in resolution (1) above to secure the obligations specified therein.
