Committee decision: Refused
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development does not provide a fire safety statement or a
reasonable exemption statement to demonstrate high standards of fire
safety have been considered at the planning stage. It therefore fails to
satisfy the requirement of Policy D12(A) of London Plan 2021.
1
2
By reason of excessive numbers and inappropriate positioning, the
proposed installation of three air vents would clutter the simple elevational
design of the application building. It further lacks supporting information as
to how the proposed vents would affect the brickwork lintel details of the
arches, and justification regarding the exact position, size and the number
required and whether an alternative option of rear façade installation has
been considered. This therefore fails to demonstrate a sympathetic design
in relation the building and the conservation area, warranting a refusal in
accordance with para. 202 (Chapter 16) of the National Planning Policy
Framework (2021), Policy HC1 (Heritage conservation and growth) of the
London Plan (2021) and Policies P13 (Design of places), P14 (Design
quality), P20 (Conservation Areas) and P21 (Conservation of the Historic
Environment and Natural Heritage) of the Southwark Plan (2022).
