I am writing to request information under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 regarding the Manor Park Road development site associated with the Places for Barnet LLP joint venture.This request follows a recent public meeting with council officers and representatives of Places for Barnet LLP, during which reference was made to pre-application advice having been sought or received in relation to this site. I am therefore seeking formal disclosure of this advice and any associated documentation.Please provide:1.All pre-application planning advice issued by Barnet Council to Places for Barnet LLP or any of its delivery partners (including Kuropatwa Group UK Ltd, London Placemaking Ltd, or any related entity) relating to the Manor Park Road site, from January 2022 to the present.This should include but not be limited to:oWritten advice, feedback, or guidance from planning officers.oMeeting notes, email correspondence, or presentation materials exchanged as part of the pre-application process.oSubmitted drawings, design proposals, or access strategy documents.oOfficer commentary on site access, use of green space, or public realm integration.2.Any internal Barnet Council communications or meeting notes referencing the potential or proposed public access to the rear green space (currently functioning as resident amenity land or open greenspace) at the Manor Park Road site.3.The names of the parties who paid for or formally requested this pre-application advice and the date(s) of any formal pre-application submission or meetings.If any parts of this request are exempt under EIR Regulation 12, please conduct a public interest test in accordance with the law and provide partial disclosures where possible.
