The best way to make sure your comments are considered by the Planning Committee is by responding to the planning application consultation.
You can share your views on the planning application by:
- going to the Planning Portal and completing the online feedback
- emailing your views with Application 201329 in the subject line
- writing to DM Consultations, Planning Services, First Floor, The Magistrates, 1 Farnan Avenue, Walthamstow, E17 4NX quoting Application 201329 at the start of your letter
Responses from residents can still be submitted until the date of the Planning Committee meeting is known.
However, if you submit comments within the 30 day consultation we are more likely to be able to flag up concerns or request amendments or additional information from the applicant.
All responses received will be summarised in the report to Planning Committee in the usual way.
At the Planning Committee, following the officer’s presentation, the applicant and a maximum of three objectors can speak for a maximum of three minutes each.
