Petition against Widewater Place Change of Use

We the undersigned petition Hillingdon Council to refuse the following three applications and to refer the matter to the appropriate committee for further review and consideration. Applications are: 76643/APP/2024/1497 (Musgrave House, Widewater Place Moorhall Road, Harefield) 76641/APP/2024/1498 (Chaplin House, Moorhall Road, Harefield) 76642/APP/2024/1499 (Norgine House, Widewater Place, Moorhall Road, Harefield) Kind regards Harefield residents

- Transport and highways: Harefield doesn't benefit from a good public transport network. The development would render future occupants of flats of the site (131 flats in total) heavily reliant on the private cars and this does not present a sustainable form of development.

- Lack of information regarding bin collection

- Noise Impact Assessment: Lack of noise report and Impacts of noise from commercial premises on the intended occupiers of the development

- Fire: The applicant/ agent has not included provision for a satisfactory turning space within the site for Fire Engine at 8.5mL along with a 3.7mW access from the highway for emergency vehicles

- Conservation Area: The application sites are located within the Widewater Lock Conservation Area. And therefore, the impact of the change of use of the ground floor and first floor of the buildings on the character or sustainability of the conservation area must be considered which the applicant/ agent hasn't provided this assessment in full.

This ePetition runs from 18/06/2024 to 19/07/2024.
