Camden UDP Deposit Draft 2003 – Section 11 - Land Use Proposals Section 11 - Land Use Proposals LU1 - Schedule of Land Use Proposals The Council will grant planning permission for development that is in accordance with the guidance set out in the Schedule of Land Use Proposals. The Council will not grant planning permission for schemes that are contrary to the guidance set out in the Schedule, unless it can be demonstrated that changing circumstances mean an alternative form of development is more appropriate. 11.1 Camden is a very built up Borough, with relatively few large scale development opportunities. Where these opportunities occur, the Council wishes to see sites developed for the most appropriate use in relation to the needs of the Borough, local circumstances and site specific considerations. 11.2 The Schedule of Land Use Proposals gives guidance on appropriate uses on major development sites within the Borough. It sets out the location of the sites, their current and preferred uses and any relevant background information. As it is not practical for the Schedule to include every development site in the Borough, only sites of over 500 square metres, and smaller sites of strategic importance, are included. 11.3 The Council will make decisions on planning applications on sites contained in the Schedule of Land Use Proposals in the light of the guidance in the Schedule and all other relevant policies in the Plan. The Council will grant permission for proposals in accordance with the schedule and other relevant UDP policies. 11.4 The Council has prepared planning briefs for a number of the sites included in the Schedule and will prepare others as appropriate. These provide more detailed guidance and set out how the Council will apply policy on a particular site. Briefs will be made available for public consultation and agreed by Executive to give them additional weight as a consideration in the Council’s decisions on planning applications. The Council will look to prepare planning briefs for all sites on the Schedule. 139 140 Camden UDPDepositDraft 2003– Site Site address Site area Current use Preferred use Comments no. 1 ABC Cinema 932 sq m D2 Mixed use with Planning permission granted subject to section 106 for Pond Street, & residential demolition and provision of a 3 to 8 storey building, comprising a 83 Fleet Street, neighbourhood retail store and 51 residential units, associated NW3 basement parking and servicing areas (Ref: PEX0100337).
