“ It should be noted that GLA strongly objected to the current plan in their pre-planning application meeting with Hill and suggested: "The proposed residential development on this site is not supported in strategic terms, as the quantity and quality of proposed publicly accessible open space does not outweigh the significant loss of existing green space. The applicant is therefore encouraged to investigate increasing the quantity and quality of public open space (and if necessary a reduction in the quantum of housing), through a more appropriate site layout that better responds to the existing context". pre-application report GLA/4918/AP01 ”
