Further response from Brent Council on Ealing Road Library consultation complaints

The proposed design

Alice Lester, Brent Council's Head of Planning, Transport and Licensing, Regeneration and Environment, has responded to the resident's request for wider consultation posted earlier LINK

I can see that this application is generating a lot of local interest. We do want people to have the chance to comment, so although we have already written to 35 properties around the library about the proposals, we will send out more letters to the streets outlined in your email. This date on the site notice has also been amended (although as I said, comments will be taken into account and reported to committee if they are received beforehand).

My colleagues who are responsible for submitting the planning application are going to arrange a local meeting to explain the proposals. A date is just being arranged; if the details aren’t included in the notification letter mentioned above, then you will be notified separately.

The impact of the proposal on parking/traffic will be part of the assessment of the application but clearly any comments you and others have on this as part of your responses will be helpful.
