Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
- The proposal, by reason of the lack of family sized homes with three or more bedrooms and its
preponderance of smaller 1-bed units, would fail to achieve an appropriate housing mix, having regard to the
location of the site and its surroundings as well as the evidence of local need which identifies the need for
more larger, family-sized units and would fail to contribute to the creation of inclusive and mixed communities,
contrary to the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework (2024), Policies H1, H2 and H10 of the
London Plan (2021) and Policies HO1 and HO2 of the Harrow Local Plan (2021-2041).
