Kensington and Chelsea's Planning Applications Committee
The Kensington and Chelsea Planning Applications Committee recently approved a hospital generator, following earlier decisions on residential developments.
The Kensington and Chelsea Planning Applications Committee, which decides on planning applications, approved an emergency generator for hospital imaging equipment at 180-186 Brompton Road in September 2026. The committee had previously deferred the decision to seek further information regarding the generator's siting, screening, and necessity, as reported in September 2026.
Earlier, in October 2025, the committee refused a proposal to demolish and rebuild at 12 Cathcart Road, stating the new building would not enhance the Boltons Conservation Area. In September 2025, it approved a garden room at 36 Holland Park after amended plans removed a lantern, and a lower ground floor extension at 20 Arundel Gardens after officers sought design amendments to address neighbour concerns.
