Planning details for 60 flats on the hamlets car park now available

[reneet]

Received a letter from Southwark as I live in the neighbour hood. Apparently consultations will close on the 9th of Feb 2011. They have highlighted areas that will be taken in considerations. Apparently parking might not be one of them as the building will have its own underground parking. Loss of sunlight to property will be considered therefore people on burrow road should consider this. I keep on wondering where they will get space for a garden as the parking space and car wash seem too small. Should take a traffic photo on Saturday evenings, the traffic caused by sainburys is terrible. Just rumbling now from general annoyance.

Just to pass on what Eddie M has mentioned on his thread in the "What's On" section: due to the recent homicide, the forum which was due to take place at 5.45 tonight has been postponed until further notice.

Not sure how many of you would bother to look at a thread entitled: "Dulwich Hamlet at home - Sat 29/1, 3.00pm - Now Postponed", so I have cut and paste a post which is pertinent to this matter:

The Supporters' Forum encompassing details of the proposed car park development is intended to be rescheduled for this coming Tuesday after the Horsham YMCA game. However it is understandable this may not be convenient for some people. If people are happy for this to go ahead at a later date on a Saturday could you let me know?

If you wish for this to take place on a Saturday: click here and post accordingly.

I hope you know what you are doing. There is a difference between being a supporter of DHFC and its interests and one's own interests as a resident of the area. This meeting sounds like it is for the former and not the latter although one could be both. However you may not be doing the club any favours by whipping the locals up into a frenzy to attend a meeting which is not for the purpose of addressing their interests.

[Ladymuck]

Thanks for your concern Narnia.

Well, I asked one of the DHFC guys if this meeting was for the general public (including local residents who oppose the planned works) and he said yes. He also said that we would be able to ask questions about the proposals. I am a loyal supporter of DHFC, but, as a resident who is likely to be affected by additional building, am NOT a supporter of this intended project. Therefore, it is my intention to attend whether they like it or not!

But you have raised a valid point. I am now going to return to the DHFC thread to clarify.

Hi,

Again, for the benefit of those of you who don't read football threads:

Hello again Griff,

I just need to check.

Following the last DHFC match, I visited DHFC personnel in the Board Room for the purpose of asking them whether the above meeting (Supporters' Forum) was also for the general public (including those local residents who are unhappy about the proposed building proposals), and was told yes. Please could you confirm that this remains the case.

My situation is that, whilst a longstanding and loyal supporter of DHFC, I am also a local resident likely to be affected by the proposed works. I oppose the current proposals and wish to make my objections known as well as to ask questions. I also have many neighbours (some of whom are not necessarily supporters of the Club) but who would neverthless also like to attend. May we attend? Or not?

Thanks.

Unable to go along last night but interested to hear of any comments made.

At the moment the application appears to have been pulled from the website. I've emailed Adrian Dennis to suggest letters go out addressed to "Owner" as so many houses in Abbotswood and surrounding roads are rented. At the moment they simply send them out addressed to "Occupier" so may never get seen by person who has a legal interest.

Seems its back and letters are still to Occupier.

Got mine as well to day. Yep, "Whoever lives here, not that we care".

[ratty]

Parking will be an issue, other than that I cannot see a problem.

[Loz]

Five stories there is rather out of place, as well.

Just received a letter from Southwark Planning this morning saying that this planning application is now live again.

The consultation period starts tomorrow (26th August) and ends on 15th September according to the letter.

dulwich hamlet is roughly where it was before/ you can still see one of the old floodlight towers.

Sorry to have a short attention span -- but although I wrote to the council to ask, PLEASE don't do this!, I entirely forget the array of impressive arguments that I marshalled to support my request.

No wonder really, since they were all pinched from neighbours.

Will someone do me a favour and list the reasons that this is not a Good Thing? I promise not to simply cut-and-paste. SERIOUS REQUEST. Thanks.
