Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposal, given its prominent location, overall size and design, would incur
visual harm to the openness, visual relief and greenery of the streetscape, and the
wider setting of Langthorne Park, to the contrary of Policy D4 and HC1 of the
London Plan (2021), Policy 53 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1
(2024).
2
Due to the lack of details related to security measures and design, the proposal
fails to demonstrate a minimised risk of crime and anti social behaviour, to the
contrary of Policy 58 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1 (2024).
3
The proposed locker, due to its positoning and general scale, it would introduce
additional street clutter and obstruction of pedestrian movement, to the contrary of
Policies 66 and 61 of the adopted Waltham Forest Local Plan LP1 (2024).
