APPROVED

Installation of new Changing Places Accessible WC Pre-Fabricated Unit adjacent to existing Visitor Centre.

An oral representation in support of the application was given by Max Graham, Regeneration Project Manager (LBB).  As stated in the Report, in March 2022 Bromley Council was awarded £220K grant funding from the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities to deliver four Changing Places facilities at agreed locations across the Borough which included High Elms Country Park.

The facilities support the needs of profoundly disabled users which include washing and changing facilities. The proposed building would reduce the overall footprint, although it would be wider.

The Chairman stated that he felt there was no reason not to approve the application as Members were fully supportive of the Changing Places scheme.

Members having considered the report and objections, RESOLVED that PERMISSION BE GRANTED as recommended, subject to the conditions as set out in the report.
