Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would have an acceptable effect on the provision of employment generating floorspace (Appeal A only)
  • Whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupiers (Appeal A only)
  • Whether the proposed development would make suitable provision for cycle storage (Appeal A only)
  • Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for the occupiers of neighbouring properties (Appeals A and B)
  • Whether the submitted Unilateral Undertaking would be an appropriate mechanism to secure the provisions of the original S106 agreement (Appeal B only)

What decided it

Appeal A was decided by the failure to demonstrate compliance with Policy ED1 regarding loss of office floorspace and inadequate outlook for future occupiers; Appeal B was decided by the Unilateral Undertaking being an inappropriate mechanism to secure S106 obligations without Council agreement.

Plan policies cited: Policy ED1, Policy E1, Policy E2, Policy Q2, Policy H5, Policy T3, Policy T5, Lambeth Local Plan 2020–2035, The London Plan March 2021
