Extract from South London News.

"A Lewisham planning committee approved an application for a house to be turned into flats despite members’ concerns the proposals were against policy.

On Thursday (May 20) the committee considered an application to convert a two-storey Victorian house by the junction of Forest Hill Road and Canonbie Road into three flats, as well as to build another two storey building beside it.

The new building would also be made up of three flats, with the ground floor a three-bed aimed at families.

Very Compelling reading.

Literally interpreting DMP3 policy for their own benefit. It is clear you cannot demolish family homes for flats, regardless of size and layout or quality.

It's exactly what we raised with plan DC/21/124859 and DC/22/127431

If the council want to update the policy then it should be done legally, not on an individuals will or opinion.
