Decided by Waltham Forest Planning Committee on 3 Mar 2026.
Refused
Against officer advice: officers had recommended approval.
- Officers advised approval because revisions addressed earlier concerns and the scheme complied with planning policies.
- Residents objected to overdevelopment, parking, noise, overlooking, loss of light, construction impacts and the building’s effect on the area.
- The committee refused the application because of overdevelopment, overlooking, noise and the absence of a legal agreement.
