Full Planning Permission (Nick Bovaird)

STRONG OBJECTION to the proposal. There are doubts that the temporary nature of the application will be observed and there is doubt about the integrity of the buildings proposed. This will also adversely the nature of the Conservation Area in this location.

2022/2299 Basement And Ground Floor, 36 Great Eastern Street, EC2A 3ES Application for a retrospective change of use from Class E (restaurant) to Sui generis (restaurant and take-away). Full Planning Permission (James Clark)

Noted but NO OBJECTION

2022/2471 Units 31 And 32, Dorchester House Bridport Place, N1 5FH Retrospective advertisement consent for the installation of; 2 x fascia signs with external illumination; 1 x non-illuminated fascia sign; 10 x vinyl stickers on windows and doors. Advertisement Consent (Catherine Nichol)

OBJECTION because the signage is contrary to the Hackney Shopfront Design Guide. The pavement incursion creates pedestrian hazard and it looks visually messy.

2022/2461 33 - 34 Hoxton Square, N1 6NN Installation of internally illuminated fascia sign. Advertisement Consent (Jonathan Bainbridge)

OBJECTION. The South Shoreditch Conservation Area Management Plan section on Hoxton Square identifies one of the threats to the area as "...signage (which) can dominate the square detracting away from the character area." (9.6.2) While the handful of restaurants/bars fronting the Square do have illuminated signs, none of the offices do. Allowing this one would create a most unwelcome precedent. The proposed sign is significantly larger than the existing signage. The proposed internal illumination is in contravention of Hackney's Shopfront Design Guide for Conservation Areas. Finally, we question the environmental appropriateness of the proposed daytime illumination in terms of energy use and carbon emissions.

2022/2084 Stores At 9-15 Land At Regan Way And Crondall Street, N1 6PH Variation of condition 2 (Development not in accordance) of planning permission 2018/4205 dated 14/11/2019 for Demolition of existing garages and erection of 3 storey building to provide 6 self-contained dwellings (use class C3) In relation to alterations to i ncrease in height of building, alterations to fenestration, increase in cil heights raised to 900mm; replacement of fibre c-core board with render; rendered panel between site and Regan Yard gap; alterations to rear stairwell to east elevation Removal/Variation of Condition(s) (Micheal Garvey)
