Decision & conditions
Decision NoticePlanning conditions
- REASON: The proposed change of use would result in the unjustified loss of business floorspace at basement and ground floor levels within the Central Activities Zone and Bunhill & Clerkenwell Area Action Plan where there is a clear land-use priority for business use. In the absence of adequate marketing evidence to demonstrate otherwise, in line with Appendix 1 of Islington’s SDMP (2023), the proposal is contrary to Policy B3 of Islington’s Strategic and Development Management Policies (2023).
