Application progress
This application is under consideration - no decision has been issued yet. Plota predicted a decision around 4 Oct 2026; it is now day 207.
Planning committee
Decided by Hackney Planning Sub-Committee on 29 Jul 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved
- Officers advised approval because the housing loss was justified, the design was acceptable and impacts could be controlled by conditions.
- Fourteen neighbours objected, citing housing loss, overdevelopment, character, noise, traffic, parking and safety concerns; one response supported it.
- The committee voted five for, one against and two abstentions, and granted conditional permission subject to conditions and a legal agreement.
