These permissions are a material consideration in the determination of this planning application and are given due weight when examining the details of this application. These are extant consents and could be implemented, should the developer choose to do so, although the developer has advised that as things stand it is no longer its intention to implement the 2014 planning permission and that all discussions with anchors and key occupiers are predicated on the current planning application. In the intervening 3 years and 9 months since the 2014 scheme was granted planning permission and conservation area consent the original scheme has not been progressed any further. As per the evidence to the 2015 CPO Inquiry, the scheme design has evolved since the 2014 consent layout. The changes encompassed within the current planning application are largely commercially driven and principally as follows: Incorporation of Green Park House site into the scheme. This increased site area, along with the demolition of the Whitgift Car Park will enable Marks & Spencer to relocate into a brand new modern store rather than remaining in the outmoded current store. This is a key driver for the new scheme, albeit (as advised by the developer) at significant additional cost to them. Improved interface between scheme and Poplar Walk as a result of reconfigured northern end of scheme. Revised mall layout to enable a 3 level scheme. Separation of residential towers from the retail superstructure. This significantly improves buildability of the residential element of the scheme. Revised access arrangements so that access for the retail car park and servicing access is no longer taken from Poplar Walk. It is the scheme envisaged in the current application which is the subject of this report, which the developer wishes to progress. The main differences between the approved scheme and the current proposal are explained in the section titled ‘Regeneration of the Metropolitan Centre’ below. 2.2 In April 2014 the Council made a Compulsory Purchase Order (CPO) to acquire the necessary land to bring forward the comprehensive redevelopment of the land, subject to the 2014 consents. The CPO Inquiry was held during February and March 2015 and the Secretary of State confirmed the CPO in September 2015. At the time the CPO was confirmed, the developer demonstrated that there was a reasonable prospect of the scheme being delivered and this will also need to be shown in relation to this scheme before the land subject to the CPO is vested, should planning permission be granted for this scheme. 2.3 Since this time, as mentioned above, the developer has acquired additional land at Green Park House (on the corner of Poplar Walk and Wellesley Road) and other land interests and undertaken further design evolution of the scheme. 2.4 The developer engaged in pre-application discussions with the Council, and whilst the proposals are described fully later in this report, a summary of the main changes since the 2014 planning permission are summarised as follows: Increased site area, including the acquired Green Park House site. Demolition (rather than retention) of the multi-storey car park on Wellesley Road, and the Marks and Spencer store on the corner of North End and Poplar Walk. These areas would be included in the redevelopment scheme (rather than being refurbished). As a result the northern section of the site is now proposed to be demolished and redeveloped. Increased residential floorspace (and reconfiguration of its location within the site). The residential component is to be provided as "build for rent" with affordable housing being provided through units at discounted market rents. Increased combined retail and leisure floorspace. Changes to vehicle access and egress points. Creation of a new area of public realm on Poplar Walk. Step-free east-west route. Potential inclusion of hotel use or student accommodation. Provision of a single, modern car park to serve the development. 2.5 The proposals which have evolved to become this application have been presented to this Committee twice during the pre-application process on 28 April 2016 and 14 July 2016. The proposed development was reported to enable members of the Committee to view it before a planning application was submitted and to comment upon it. The development presentations did not constitute an application for planning permission and any comments made upon it were provisional and without prejudice to full consideration of any subsequent application and the comments received as a result of consultation, publicity and notification. 2.6 The following comments were raised by the Committee during those presentations (the following is representative of the Council’s formal minutes). 28 April 2016: Design and massing: Generally a positive view about the exciting development coming forward Concern about views of the roof car park for residents in the towers - the applicant needs to explore the possibility of improving aspect with some landscaping or other covering Need for more separation between the towers, in order to avoid coalescence and a 'one block' appearance
