Through the hard work of the local Councillors Eagling, Goode and Wise and Ian Jacobs, Sharon Heron and all the campaign team who campaigned so hard against the planning application to build 87 dwellings in Tesco’s Car Park, we finally got the result we wanted as the planning application has been refused by Havering Council’s Planning Department. This has been a remarkable achievement following residents protesting at Tesco’s in September and previous distribution of approximately 1800 letters by the Harold Wood Hill Park Residents’ Association and there was also 1000 leaflets distributed by the Campaign Team.
The Harold Wood Councillors did of course call the planning application in to the Planning Committee though that will not now be needed as this has been refused. We will of course keep an eye on future developments as the Developer could submit another planning application or appeal to the Planning Inspectorate.
