Summary of request
Your request
Can you confirm if anyone is actively doing anything with the site now? Your response states that the GLA will 'will look at options to take the site forward.', but that seems incredibly vague, and it is not clear that anyone is actively doing anything at the moment.
Are you able to confirm the next steps and timescales, as requested in the original email? The site is an eyesore on the community, which I would be less concerned about if I thought that someone was actively working to develop it?
Our response
We are conscious of the need to bring this site forward for regeneration and are exploring all suitable options to enable a faster delivery.
GLA Land and Property (GLAP) is currently commissioning a feasibility study seeking to optimise development potential and deliverability of the site. The feasibility study will inform pre-application meetings with the London Borough of Waltham Forest and the GLA Planning team, leading to the production of a development brief that will support a future procurement exercise.
We expect to be able to commence the options appraisal for the site after this summer, with the objective to bring this site back to the market for disposal to a development partner in the coming year.
