How could this affect you?

Any new development in your local area will have an effect on your community.

We've outlined some of the ways we think this development would impact your community, so that you can give us feedback on what's important for us to consider when we're deciding what to give planning permission for.

New homes

24
new homes
100%
affordable housing
How did we calculate this?

The number of self contained homes that are being proposed. This includes affordable, social and private housing. Larger schemes might have a range showing the minimum and maximum number of homes if the total number is going to be decided later.

Affordable housing is a term used to cover different types of housing that are less costly than housing on the private market. This might be social rented housing, affordable rented housing or housing which the government helps people to buy a proportion of. It can be shown as a proportion of the total number of homes, or as a proportion of the total residential floorspace.

Open spaces

1230
square metres
How did we calculate this?

Open space includes land and areas of water (such as rivers and canals) which can be used for sport, recreation and relaxation. Applicants calculate the amount of open space, but it's checked by council planners when assessing the application.

New jobs

50-85
new roles
How did we calculate this?

The council estimates how many new jobs a new development will produce based on the size and type of development. This estimate is based on the Employment Density Guide (3rd addition) produced by Homes & Community Agency (2015). A summary of this guide is published as part of the Camden Planning Guidance for Employment sites and business premises (Appendix 1).

Carbon emissions

36%
less than minimum requirements
How did we calculate this?

Building regulations set the amount of carbon emissions a development can generate once it is in use. This shows how far below the legal requirements the proposal is.

Pedestrian and vehicle access

Main pedestrian access via ground level on Chalk Farm Road. Emergency vehicle access only from Chalk Farm Road.
