You kindly signed our petition in the summer of 2016 to protect a quiet though well-known Georgian street in a conservation area in the heart of London’s Waterloo, under threat from a redevelopment proposal. Impact You Made: The proposal submitted last year by Education First (EF) Language Schools to Lambeth Council was withdrawn following a huge outcry and strong and high-level opposition. More than 11,000 people signed the first petition, there were articles in the Evening Standard and the story appeared on ITV News as a result - your help was key to saving the street! The Next Battle: Sadly the developers have now resubmitted development plans (almost identical to before) and we face the same battle again. We need your help again to continue to preserve this historic street. How You Can Help: We need your help to lodge an objection with Lambeth Council Planning (this takes 2 minutes) and will hugely help in fighting developers ruining yet another historic street. Steps to lodge a complaint: 1/ Click on the link included in this update, which takes you directly to the Lambeth planning site for the proposed development 2/ Select Object 3/ Please use the points below to object but reword to make it personal to you. i) Harm caused to the fabric, character and setting of a Grade II listed building. ii) The proposed development is against the National Planning Policy Framework (Section 12, paragraphs 128-138) iii) The development would block the view of a Grade II Listed Building to the public iv) The Waterloo Conservation Area Statement specifically protects open spaces (paragraph 2.15) v) Modern Development is jarring to historic nature of the street. Thank you!
