Why it was refused

  1. In the absence of any details for the kitchen uses within the Deliveries and Servicing Plan it has not been demonstrated that the delivery arrangements to the building as a whole would be appropriate and would limit the effects of the increase in travel movements, contrary to Policy T7 Lambeth Local Plan 2021 and Policy T7 of the London Plan 2021. Condition 5 cannot therefore be recommended for discharge.
  2. In the absence of a suitable maintenance specification, a suitable BNG Gain Plan and a suitable management plan, it has not been demonstrated that the proposal would introduce high quality soft landscaping in and around the site in the interests of the ecological value of the site and to ensure a satisfactory landscaping of the site in the interests of visual amenity, contrary to Policies EN1, Q2, Q9 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) and G7 of the London Plan (July 2021). Condition 24 cannot therefore be recommended for discharge.
  3. In the absence of any technical notes for the green roofs, it is uncertain how the green roofs will be installed and then maintained. It has therefore not been demonstrated that the proposal would adequately promote biodiversity and rainwater attenuation on the site, contrary to Policies G1, G5, SI 2 and SI 13 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies EN1, EN4, EN5, EN6 and Q9 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021)). Condition 25 cannot therefore be recommended for discharge.
  4. It has not been demonstrated that the proposal would meet UGF requirements in line with Policy G5 of the London Plan. Condition 27 cannot therefore be recommended for discharge.
