If you oppose the current planning application to build the Octave Tower (on the existing Bondway site), please sign our petition http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/no-to-octave-tower.html
The planning application for the 36-story tower on Wandsworth Road goes before the planning committee on 16 March, with the recommendation, subject to section 106 agreement, that it be accepted (item 5):

The arguments being put forward in favour of it will no doubt be similar or the same as those which will be used to obtain planning approval for the Octave Tower.
It happened this morning around 1am. VG resident heard a scream, immediately went out, but couldn’t see girl or attacker. Someone else said that a guy had run off with her bag. No more details.
And she is Claire Dickson – her role being to implement and manage cycle parking in residential areas.
You may recall some lively debate here on the blog a while back on cycle parking in general and ‘plantlocks’ in particular that kept everyone entertained for ages – but it didn’t move the matter forward.
We now have another opportunity. Draeyk is in touch with Claire and expects to hear from her in the coming weeks. He will let us know what comes of it so that we can all be involved in what happens next.
It was 2am on Thursday 25 February. Having been to the Viva Vauxhall AGM, all local residents were safely tucked up in bed, fast asleep – except one! And he spotted two ’skinny’ guys in their thirties, one black and one white, crawling out through the window of Centre Media at 2 Langley Lane.
They had broken in by jemmying open a window and then forcing the security grille off its runners. Police found their crowbar dumped in a nearby litter bin.
If anyone else heard or saw anything, please would they contact the police or Centre Media.
And from burglary to car crime. Ali wants to know if any other residents keep having their car broken into? It has happened twice to her in the last 2 weeks and somehow the person picks her car lock and gets in the car without being detected. If it has happened to you, please would you comment below.
