PART I: Community Meeting with Deloitte
Battersea Studios Development
Planning Case No. 2021/0641

Local Councillor & Community Representatives Meet with Deloitte.
After a community-driven campaign to Object to the proposed development, Deloitte conducted an on-site meeting with local Wandsworth Councillor, Aydin Dikerdem, and 4 community representatives.
Deloitte presented visual renderings for the proposed future of the building, explained the location of the building, and the use of the building.
During the meeting the community representatives had the opportunity to express the following concerns raised in the objection letters:
Height of the building
Traffic concerns
Parking concerns
Necessity of the building in a Post-Covid world
Cohesiveness of the building within the BDTQ
Benefits to the community
Green space/Publicly accessible space
Larger plan
The community also voiced it’s concerns about a post-facto meeting for community input, rather than seeing the developer be pro-active in community engagement.
The meeting left the community’s issues unresolved, but opened the door for further discussion.
