Woodcote (Epsom) Resident\u2019s Society (WERS) supporting your concerns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A controversial planning application for the redevelopment of Green Gables in Ashley Road for a large linked block comprising 22 student flats was refused by the Council\u2019s Planning  Committee on 3rd November 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This refusal was very much down to the support and advice given by W(E)RS to local residents who would have been adversely affected by the development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The application was recommended for planning permission by Council Officers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cllr Liz Frost\u2019s spoke against the application as Ward Councillor on behalf of objectors to the Committee meeting members. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cllr Steven McCormick, following several questions to officers during the meeting, moved a motion of refusal on the grounds of visual impact; loss of outlook; loss of privacy and lack of clear evidence demonstrating a need for the development, which was ultimately seconded and supported by a majority of members and a refusal for planning permission was decided. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A resident from Ladbroke Road who would have been one of the residents most harmed by the proposal stated in a message to John Mumford, W(E)RS Committee member who advised on how best to set out his planning objections, that: \u2018your guidance on addressing the second-round objections was most supportive. I am also aware that you have assisted Liz Frost to whom I am also most grateful for her unstinting support from day one. A third person, Steven McCormick, was so well prepared(!) and most robust in ensuring his constructive questioning was addressed at the meeting.\u2019<\/em>   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

W(E)RS and our ward Councillors will always listen carefully to residents\u2019 concerns.  Where appropriate, we will represent views at the Council\u2019s Planning Committee especially if we feel that the harm from a proposal outweighs the supposed benefits.  We also work hard to secure amendments to schemes so that they overcome residential amenity problems and can ultimately be recommended for planning permission.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
