Another win for PHRA members - The Brambles
/The Pollards Hill perennial development site at 18 Pollards Hill West, has been refused by development management of Croydon’s local authority, following the end of the public consultation period. (further details on our Planning page)
We looked at the scheme and we agreed with the resident members, the scheme was inappropriate. The reasons for refusal are plentiful and the scheme can be adequately summed up as, not policy compliant.
Congratulations and a huge thanks must go to the resident members who worked on the detailed technical objections and to those of you who submitted your comments during the public consultation period.
A special Thank you to Cllr Neal, Chair of Planning, for the swift Chairs referral of interest and to our local Cllr Griffith, for his offer to speak at committee, on our behalf.
Lastly a thank you to the development management team @ Croydon, often vilified for doing their jobs, that took the time to carefully consider the public consultation comments and form the only logical conclusion, scheme refusal.
OFFICAL NOTIFICATION
/We advise that the PHRA AGM will be delayed this year due to lack of Committee members – meeting date to be advised.
Urgent Appeal for New Committee members: if you think you can help us make a difference and care about the area where you live, please contact the PHRA by email to PHRAENQUIRIES@GMAIL.COM
