Ealing Council is publishing its applications late: so far it has put about three fifths of those it has numbered since late August on its register. Plota adds each one as soon as the council publishes it.
Application progress
Under consideration
No decision has been issued yet. Plota predicted a decision soon after comments close on 3 Jun 2026; it is now day 477.
Planning committee
Decided by Ealing Planning Committee on 19 Aug 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the scheme would retain the post office, provide employment and town-centre uses, and avoid unacceptable impacts.
- Residents and local representatives objected to the building’s height, appearance, self-storage use, traffic and limited community benefit.
- The committee granted permission subject to legal agreements, conditions and an additional replacement post office requirement.
