111 Oaklands Road Hanwell W7 2DT

1. 1.The proposed development, by reason of the siting of refuse storage within the front forecourt, the subdivision of the frontage by a timber fence, and the use of obscure glazing to the front bay window as a mitigation measure for the resulting privacy conflict, would create a fragmented and contrived frontage that would appear incongruous and visually intrusive within the street scene. The proposal would fail to represent a logical or high-quality alteration to the building and would therefore be contrary to Policies D3 and D4 of the London Plan (2021), Policies 7.4 and 7B of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013), and Policy DAA of the Ealing Draft Local Plan (Regulation 22).
2. 2.The proposed development, by reason of insufficient and inconsistent information relating to Unit 1, including the failure to clearly identify the nature of the unit and demonstrate an acceptable internal layout and standard of accommodation, would result in uncertainty as to whether an appropriate standard of residential accommodation would be achieved. The proposal therefore fails to demonstrate compliance with the relevant internal space, layout and residential quality standards and is contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021) and Policy 3.5 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013).
3. 3.The proposed upper floor flat (Flat 2), by reason of the lack of private outdoor amenity space and the site's location within an area deficient in public open space, would fail to provide an appropriate standard of residential amenity for future occupiers. The proposal would therefore result in poor living conditions and would be contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021) and Policy 7D of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013).
4. 4.The proposed development by reason of its type and location, fails to provide secure, convenient and accessible cycle parking facilities. The reliance on wall-mounted hanging cycle stands would result in an impractical form of cycle storage that does not accord with best practice guidance, whilst insufficient manoeuvring space has been provided to demonstrate that bicycles can be easily accessed and stored. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policies T4 and T5 of the London Plan (2021) and the West London Cycle Parking Design Guidance (2017).
