Valencia have taken a year working with Sutton Council to provide further information for their planning application originally submitted in 2024, after receiving 62 objections!
Valencia have not done any consultation with the local communities which has been left to voluntary groups to spread the word to give residents the opportunity to respond to these new documents.
Much of our 2024 response remains valid as the access has not been reviewed or changed.
How to access the planning application
You can access all the planning documents using the button below and type in the application number DM2024/00199 (we use to provide direct links, but they sometimes time out).
