Disproportionate increase in unit numbers compared with affordable housing

  • Reference: 2021/1480
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 27 May 2021
A constituent has pointed out that, in the Mortlake Brewery scheme, a 40 per cent increase in the number of residential units, from 800 to 1250 has resulted in only a 13 per cent increase in affordable housing, reaching just 30 per cent in total. How has this been justified?

Community engagement after developments are referred to the Mayor

  • Reference: 2021/1479
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 27 May 2021
A constituent has raised an issue with the fact that, while developers are obliged to carry out community engagement, this is only during the design evolution process prior to planning submissions.

What action are you taking to protect London from the worst aspect of new Permitted Development Rights, such as homes being created that have no energy efficiency measures, no minimum accessibility requirements and with no access to green space or to local amenities?

Kew Bridge shared footway

  • Reference: 2021/1475
  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 27 May 2021
In answer to question 2017/2790 you confirmed that Kew Bridge was a junction set for further improvement through Transport for London (TfL) investment in outer London. However, the changes that have now been delivered through Cycleway 9 involve an extra traffic lane for motor vehicles on Kew Bridge, with people cycling directed to a shared footway which is hard to access. Constituents tell me they are deterred from using this road by the change in layout. What steps are you taking after works like these to monitor changes in usage and gather feedback, and when will you deliver a safe...
