233-241 LEWISHAM HIGH STREET SE13 6NQ

Minutes:

The Planning Officer outlined the details of the proposal for Listed Building Consent and Planning Permission for external and internal extension, alteration and restoration in connection with the use of the building as a place of worship (Use Class D1) and associated uses, including cafe (Use Class A3) and crèche, community hall and conference facility (use Class D1). He mentioned that English Heritage had said they would delist the building if listed building consent were granted. He also mentioned that since the publication of the agenda, further correspondence had been received from TfL, which necessitated an additional reason for refusal as follows:

(3)     Insufficient evidence has been submitted to demonstrate that the proposal would not have an adverse impact on local bus services and pedestrian safety contrary to Policy HSG 4 Residential Amenity of the UDP (2004), Policy 14 Sustainable movement and transport of the core Strategy (June 2011), Policy LTC21 Sustainable Transport of the Lewisham Town Centre Local Plan and Policy 6.3 Assessing effects of development on transport capacity of the London Plan.

The Committee received representation from Ms Wakako Hirose of Rapleys Commercial Property & Planning Consultants and from Pastor Michael White of The Tabernacle Church who said the aim of the proposed works were to restore the building to enable it to be used as a community centre and church hall, the benefit of which would far outweigh any harm that may arise from the proposed works. They did not accept that English Heritage would delist the building if listed building consent were granted and asked that planning permission and listed building consent be granted.

Councillor Reid spoke under standing orders and in support of the proposal. She said the proposed work would optimise the building for use as an outreach centre which would be of benefit to the local community and outweigh any harm that may be done to the building. She asked that planning permission and listed building consent be granted.

Following questions and deliberation whereby Members considered the harm that may result to the listed building and the proposed benefit to the public, Councillor Kennedy moved the motion to reject the officer’s recommendation and grant planning permission and listed building consent. The motion was seconded by Councillor Adefiranye

Members voted as follows:
