The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2019/3396 St John At Hackney Church Lower Clapton Road E5 0PD Installation of 2 x noticeboards and 7 x freestanding totem signs. (Alix Hauser 020 8356 6377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal though note the relative sparsity of information on the replacement wayfinding totems compared to the extant notice boards.

2019/1744 First Floor 152-156 Lower Clapton Road E5 0QJ Change of use of first floor events venue to a restaurant (Use Class A3) (Catherine Slade 020 8356 8056)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2019/3322 rear of 107-109 Downs Road E5 8DA Demolition of existing car repair workshop and redevelopment of the rear of the site to provide a two-storey building with office floorspace at ground floor and a residential unit on the first floor; external alterations including landscaping, alterations to access arrangements; alterations to basement of 107-109 Downs Road and provision of external rear fire escape to 107-109 Downs Road. (Gerard Livett 020 8356 8398)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2019/3435 7 Reighton Road E5 8SQ Alterations to the ground / basement floor flat, including excavation of front and rear lightwells, lowered basement floor level, alterations to existing rear extension at ground floor level; conversion of upper residenital unit into two self-contained units; erection of rear dormer roof extension. (Gerard Livett 020 8356 8398)

The Clapton CAAC notes the proposed rear elevation shows a much larger roof extension rising well above the ridge and chimney stacks. This is not reflected in the proposed section nor front elevation. In addition the front elevation requires more detail to understand the effect of the rooflights on the appearance, and the proposals lack a credible roof plan that might explain more. Until the drawings are rectified to be consistent and the works clearly understood, we object to the plans as submitted.

2019/3421 96-98 Clapton Common E5 9AL Erection of single-storey refuse enclosure adjacent to northeast corner of Synagogue. (Gerard Livett 020 8356 8398)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal save to observe the relatively cramped accommodation, lack of amenity and potential maintenance impact of the cladding material and sedum roof.

2019/3008 Land to the rear of 3 Stamford Grove West N16 6LJ Demolition of existing garages and erection of new 1-storey dwelling unit to provide a studio flat (Class C3). [Note for consultation: Planning application 2019/3087 also received] (Gerard Livett 020 8356 8398)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal as drawn. However the application description refers to a ground floor rear extension which is not represented in any drawings. Until such a time as this element is clarified, we object to any rear extension.

2019/3400 Flat A 83 Osbaldeston Road N16 6NP Erection of a single storey rear extension and relocation of external basement staircase. (Kelsi Bolstad 020 8356 4160)
