51 Tudor Road London N9 8PA

1. 1.The proposed development would fail to provide a satisfactory standard of accommodation for future occupiers. Bedrooms 2 and 3 would be located directly adjacent to the kitchen, with access to bedroom 3 directly through the kitchen area which together with the location of the bedrooms adjacent to the rear amenity space would not provide a practical or convenient layout for all future occupiers also resulting in undue noise, disturbance and loss of privacy. The proposal only provides a kitchen area with no communal living, the layout would therefore be incapable of meeting the reasonable day- to-day needs of a six-person HMO and would result in substandard living conditions and would therefore fail to provide a high-quality form of shared accommodation, contrary to contrary to Policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policy CP4 of the Enfield Plan Core Strategy (2010), Policies DMD5 and DMD8 of the Development Management Document (2014) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2026).
2. 2.The proposed internal layout would require occupants of bedroom 3 to escape via the kitchen before reaching the final exit, resulting in reliance on escape through a risk room. No secondary means of escape to a safe place have been provided and the Council has not been satisfied that the layout adequately incorporates fire safety principles or provides safe and appropriate means of evacuation. The proposal therefore fails to demonstrate compliance with Policy D12 (Part A) of the London Plan, (2021).
3. 3.The proposed development, in the absence of an adequate flood risk assessment and sustainable drainage strategy, fails to demonstrate how proposed measures manage the risk of flooding and utilise Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) following the drainage hierarchy in the London Plan, contrary to National Planning Policy Framework (2026), Policies SI12 and SI13 of the London Plan (2021), Policies CP21 and CP28 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010), and Policies DMD59, DMD60, DMD61, DMD62 of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014).
