Minutes:

As the Chairman stated in his introductory remarks, Councillors Cohen and Rozenberg were unable to partake or vote on this deferred item as they were not present at the original meeting.

 

Agenda Item 6 (Cricklewood Railway Yard (Plot 3)) of the Strategic Planning Committee meeting of 2nd February 2021 was considered by Members, taking account of the presentation given by the Brent Cross Planning and Transport Manager and Environmental Health Officer, in addition to the verbal representations from the Applicant and those speaking in objection to the planning application (including Ms Jessica Howey, Mr Paul Hoskins, and Councillor Anne Clarke).

 

After discussion, Members resolved that they were minded to refuse the planning application and that the application be deferred so that the reasons for refusal, in discussion with Planning Officers, could be prepared and agreed at the next meeting of the Strategic Planning Committee.

 

Consequently, based upon the Member’s discussion at the previous meeting, two reasons for refusal were presented to Members at this meeting where they were requested to vote on those reasons for refusal (proposed by Chairman and seconded by Councillor Greenspan):

 

For (reasons for refusal)

Against (reasons for refusal)
