Latest plans for Church Elm Lane released
We have released a new video showing the plans to redevelop the buildings along Church Elm Lane, Dagenham.
The revised plans for 1-4 Rectory Road and 1-18 Jervis Court include:
- 64 new homes built for the council to be let at below markets rents,
- a mixture of terraced houses, maisonettes and flats rising to 8 storeys,
- attractive resident's courtyard,
- ground floor space for a community space, and
- lots of cycle parking.
The plans have been revised following the public consultation in February, and provide more detail about the scale, finishes and community spaces available within the proposed development.
Our Development Manager, Jake Robson, explains: “We’re excited to be able to provide much more detail about our plans for these much-needed new homes for the local community.
“We hope to submit these revised plans to the Council by July, and if planning permission is granted, the works could start in summer 2021 and the new homes could be available by the autumn 2023.”
The council will let the new homes to local people on the housing list and existing tenants will have the right to return to the new homes, on equivalent rents and tenancy rights similar to those they have now.
The video explaining the detailed plans is available here.
