The developers have submitted appeals against last year’s refusal of planning permission at Esher Place. The appeal will go to the Secretary of State. The ERA will be reviewing the appeals and submitting a response.

If you wish to make comments, or modify/withdraw your previous objection, you can do so online at https://acp.planninginspectorate.gov.uk. All further representations must be submitted to the Planning Inspectorate within 5 weeks of the start date and you must quote the relevant appeal reference. The appeal was lodged on 29 September so submissions must be made by 3rd November.

The Inspector will be carrying out a site visit. If you would like the Inspector to view the appeal site from your property, please contact the Planning Inspectorate directly by emailing: east2@planninginspectorate.gov.uk quoting the Planning Inspectorate’s appeal reference number.

The appeal documents can be viewed on the Council’s website at: www.elmbridge.gov.uk/planning under the original applications (Note: a bug on the Elmbridge website means that sometimes you need to refresh the page to get to the application to appear):
