Planning Applications Committee (Kensington and Chelsea Council)
Kensington and Chelsea's Planning Applications Committee is currently deciding on development proposals, approving some and deferring others due to resident objections.
The Kensington and Chelsea Planning Applications Committee, which grants planning permission for developments, recently approved works for Colville Primary School's fence and gate in September 2026. This decision, made on 8 September 2026, saw all applications discussed approved without public objection. In September 2025, the committee also approved an application for a rear extension and shopfront changes at 18-22 Holbein Place.
The committee also considers applications facing public concerns. In September 2025, a single-storey side extension at 7 Cathcart Road was approved despite neighbour objections regarding overshadowing and loss of light. However, plans by BT Telecommunications PLC to replace InLink units with Street Hub 3 units on Kensington High Street were deferred in August 2025 due to resident objections.
