Planning News
We keep a careful eye on all planning applications that might affect Hampton Hill and the immediate area. When necessary we attend planning committee meetings as a voice for the community and make representations on behalf of the residents.
Awaiting outcome
Garrick House High St Hampton Hill​: the landowner has applied to build additional homes on the car park at the rear of Garrick House. If this were to go ahead there will be a negative impact on parking on nearby streets and pedestrian safety issues on Taylor Close.
The HHA have opposed this application and the Council refused planning permission at the end of 2024. The developer has appealed this decision.
HHA has been liaising with the residents of Garrick House who are opposed to this development and submitted further objections to the Governments Planning Inspectorate in January 2025.

St Clare Development
This large scale proposal was rejected by the local Planning Committee in December 2020. It was refused on the grounds of not providing enough commercial space and social housing. The developer is currently in the process of appealing the decision as well as putting in a new proposal. The new application seeks to address the reasons for refusal and has increased the number of homes to be offered at London Affordable Rent from 17 to 21 (+4) whilst decreasing shared ownership (39 to 35, -4). There has is an increase in commercial space that has been created by removing 19 car parking spaces.
