Thanks Birdy. How did you hear about it?
Got the standard two letter, duplicate response from the council.

It would seem if you oppose any future planning and provide your address, the council will keep you updated with events.
There is a report out today from the Planning Committee which is recommending they grant permission for this even though there has been a high number of residents opposing this application including the LCSP and local councilors.

It also seems that our MP supports the application.

Report enclosed.

Oh groo!

I'm not sure it's fair to say that Lammy supports the decision. It seems that the owner of the hotel wrote to him asking for his support. I imagine that he was almost obliged to act on the request in some way. His letter to the council seems to me to be the bare minimum he could have done and is non-committal.

There is a meeting at the Council tonight about this if people feel strongly. So far, no one from this site has said that they intend to go. I'm sure Ian from LCSP will be there.
Oh groo????

I'm confused about this - if the decision is made, what is the meeting about? I can't go but hope some of those most directly affected by the decision would be able to make it.
The recommendation is made. The decision is taken by the Council committee.
I'm afraid my crutches keep me at home. It was pretty inevitable that this would be the result. Protests about extra vehicles coming onto/off Wightman or Burgoyne aren't going to cut much ice with Planning. Other arguments I and others made (about the sort of hangers-on this sort of development is likely to attract and their effect on the neighbourhood at late hours, etc) will only be recognised by Planning when they become a reality two or three years from now. One thing's fairly obvious: this permission is not going to lead to any real upgrading of the existing unlovely premises, or any improvement of the visual aspect of this unlovely corner of Wightman Road.
Just to let everyone know, if they were planning to go to the civic centre this evening that (according to Haringey Council's website), the Planning Committee has been canceled because of the weather!
How pathetic. The roads have been cleared, transport is running.
Well, that's no bad thing. Now that people know the officers' recommendation, they may be more minded to go with a little more notice.
Perhaps. Or maybe they'll just wonder what the point is and not bother?
True Hugh, I thought it was political speak for approval, but you're probably right, soz Davo : )

I was going to tonight and have spent a few minutes compiling some notes but this will give people more time to create a stronger argument against
