Local government history was made tonight when the first joint Motion by Labour and the Liberal Democrats parties was put to the full Council meeting of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.
The motion was moved by Cllr Linda Wade (Liberal Democrat) and seconded by Emma Dent Coad (Labour). There were some amendments proposed by the Conservatives to the Motion which were debated and then the Motion was unanimously agreed.
It essentially acknowledged the inter-dependency of the Earls Court Masterplan site which straddles both the boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea as well as Hammersmith and Fulham.
Should developer Capco move forwards with their stated aim to increase the density on the Masterplan from 7.5k homes to 10k, they will need to put submit a fresh planning application which will be subject to public consultation and scrutiny.
