AAP5: Density and Use of Development

Development proposals on sites allocated in this Plan should be in general conformity with the relevant sub area and site objectives and site development parameters set out in Chapter 5.

Development proposals on other sites within the Heart of Harrow will need to demonstrate the contribution they will make to delivering the overall objectives of the Heart of Harrow and the relevant sub area objectives.

Residential development proposals should achieve densities within the appropriate range set out in the London Plan.

Regard should also be had to the character of the surrounding area and the need to secure a neighbourly relationship when determining the appropriate density of development to be achieved on the site.

Proposals that represent over development or fail to make an appropriate contribution to the delivery of the Area Action Plan’s objectives will be refused.

On large sites with long delivery timetables, temporary uses of clear local benefit will be supported.
