I went to a residents meeting about a planning application for houses on opennish land in Muswell Hill. The residents have only just won their last victory over a land grabbing and opportunist developer who is plaguing Haringey by trying to stuff houses on every little back site available.
No sooner was the ink dry on refusal for the last application then this new one was lobed in with virtually no amendment or change from the first one.
Cllr Matt Davies (LibDem, Fortis Green) helped the residents last time and was there again to do so again. I was there to add my support too. I am sick of poor residents having to fight and fight and fight against developers who obviously bank on residents eventually losing the will to fight - and eventually get a horrible scheme through. But these residents were determined to face down the developer. Hurrah!
