Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed hot food takeaway (sui generis) would be located within 400m of
a school and would add to the existing overconcentration of hot food takeaways
in the defined area. The proposal would therefore be contrary to the principles,
including the healthy eating initiatives, identified within the NPPF (2023), policy
E9(D) of the London Plan (2021), policy LP15(B) of the Wandsworth Local Plan
(2023) and the Town Centre Uses SPD (2015).
Director of Place: Paul Moore
In dealing with this application the Council has implemented the requirement in
the National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive
and proactive manner and the Council has, as far as practicable, sought
solutions to problems arising in relation to dealing with the planning application.
We have made available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in
the Local Plan consisting of the Core Strategy, Development Management
Policies Document, Supplementary Planning documents and where appropriate
the Site Specific Allocations Document as well as offering a full pre application
advice service. However, we have been unable to seek solutions to problems as
the principle of the proposal is clearly contrary to our statutory policies and
negotiation could not overcome the reasons for refusal.
