High Barnet Place planning application refused by 8 votes to 1!

After a nearly three-hour Strategic Planning Committee meeting this evening, Barratt London’s planning application for 283 flats on High Barnet Station car park was refused on grounds of excessive height and harm to the local context – as our visualisation above proves. It’s a magnificent vindication for the 802 Barnet residents who objected to it.
More will follow here when we’ve had a chance to process this unexpectedly decisive victory…
