19, Cameron Road, CR0 2SR

1. 1.The proposed refuse store would be poorly sited and would appear as a dominant and incongruous addition to the street scene, which would harm the open character and appearance of Cameron Road. The proposed development therefore fails to comply with the Croydon Local Plan (2018), in particular policies SP4, DM10, and DM13, and the London Plan (2021), in particular policies D3, D6, and SI 8.
2. 2.The proposed change of use would result in sub-standard accommodation for future occupiers by reason of inadequate kitchen facilities and inadequate privacy. The proposed development therefore fails to comply with the Croydon Local Plan (2018), in particular policies SP2, SP4, and DM10, the London Plan (2021), in particular policies D3 and D6, and the Croydon Council Houses in Multiple Occupation Standards (2024).
3. 3.The proposal would not provide satisfactory facilities for cycle storage. The proposed development therefore fails to comply with the Croydon Local Plan (2018), in particular policies SP8 and DM10, DM16, DM29, and DM30, the London Plan (2021), in particular policy T5, and the London Cycling Design Standards (2016).
4. 4.In the absence of a legal agreement, to secure measures to mitigate the impacts of the development as a consequence of demands created by the proposed development in respect of preventing on-street parking, the proposal would fail to mitigate harmful impacts and would be unacceptable in planning terms. The proposal therefore conflicts with Policies T4 and T6 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies SP8, DM29, and DM30 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018).
