extra height... [Tabard Square tower]

Quote:

Dear West Bermondsey Resident:
The developers of “Tabard Square,” Berkeley �Homes, has submitted a new planning application to request that the proposed tower on the project be permitted up to a height of 28 stories.� (The project is bounded by Long Lane, Tabard Street, Sterry Street and Southall Place.)� As you may know, residents of West Bermondsey were successful in having the number of stories reduced from 28 to 21.�� Therefore, it may be of great concern to you to know that the developers have now submitted another application to undo the work of concerned residents. The application is not yet valid because it is lacking certain documents and no planning committee date been selected to hear the item.� The planning department does plan to conduct consultations in the area.�

If you would like to express your concerns over this issue, please attend the next West Bermondsey Community Forum meeting�on 13 January 2004.� That meeting will be held at Hankey Hall, Hankey Place, off Manciple Street.� The meeting will begin at 6:30 and this item is placed first on the agenda.� Possible actions to challenge this application will be discussed.� Your attendance is greatly appreciated.� ALternatively, you may contact the West Bermondsey Community Forum for further information on�020 7403 9683, or email us at WBForum@tiscali.co.uk
