v)      The consultation for the application ends on 1st December due to the requirement to place a notice in the local press.  Letters were sent on 7th November so 21 days has passed since direct consultation.  If members resolve to grant the application the decision will not be issued until the S106 is completed which will be after the 1st of December.  If material representations are received following a committee decision and have not been addressed in this report the application will be returned to committee for a decision.  Any representations received prior to the committee meeting will be presented as an addendum to this report. 

 

vi)       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:

           

  1. In the absence of a legal agreement securing 1) the provision of on-site affordable housing 2) marketing of the scheme to local residents on targeted incomes, and 3) 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 DPD Policies DM 11 and DM 13, and Policies AAP3 and TH6.

 

  1. 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, Policy DM48 and emerging Policy AAP4.

 

  1. 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 cycle parking, public realm improvements, 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, Policy DM31 and Policy AAP7.

 

  1. In the absence of a legal agreement securing 1) public realm enhancements 2) 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 Policies DM1, DM3, DM19 and DM20, and Policies AAP6, AAP9, TH1 and TH4.

 

  1. 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 DPD Policies DM 21, DM22 and Policy TH4.

 

vii)      In the event that members choose to make a decision contrary to officers’        recommendation members will need to state their reasons.  In the event that the Planning Application is refused for the reasons set out in resolution (v) 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.
