Decision time: See you all at the Council Chamber, Hackney Town Hall, Mare Street on Thursday 12 May at 6.30

This Thursday, 12 May, the Hackney Council planning sub-committee will make its decision on whether to grant planning permission for the redevelopment of Horizon School.
The long, detailed (as well as misleading and inaccurate) report and recommendation put through by the planning department is at: www.hackney.gov.uk/planning-sub-committee . See pages 69-108 

The recommendation – the cynics among us won’t be surprised to hear – is to go ahead with NO concessions at all to local residents. That’s right, NOT ONE.

Please join your neighbours in the main council chamber of the Town Hall on Mare Street at 6.30pm to watch the sub-committee make the decision. Please ask your councillor or any other Hackney councillor you know to attend. We do hope that the sub-committee will stay true to the principles it alleges to hold dear: impartiality, fairness and transparency and will recognize the irregularities and misinformation that have tainted the consultation and application process.

Residents who object to the plans are given five glorious minutes to make their representations to the sub-committee. If you wish to speak you must notify Emma Perry 24 hours in advance:
