Hackney Wick AAP Previous Stages

What has been the AAP process so far?        

Stage 1: Phase 1 AAP Scoping and Baseline

The AAP was initially intended to be a joint document with London Borough of Tower Hamlets and the London Thames Gateway Development Corporation (LTGDC). This stage concluded with the production of the Hackney Wick and Fish Island Baseline and Key Issues Report (April 2008) and Stage 2 Report (October 2008) which consists of background supporting material that provides an initial 'evidence base' upon which the AAP was developed and a basis for wider consultation. 

Hackney has produced and commissioned a series of studies and background evidence which provide information to support the production of the Hackney Local Development Framework (LDF). You can view these on the LDF evidence page.    

Stage 2: Initial Front loaded Community Engagement 

Public engagement seeking feedback from the local community and stakeholders on how they would like to see Hackney Wick and Fish Island improve was carried out in April and May 2008, and is a key element of baseline information.

Two public workshops where carried out in Hackney Wick / Fish Island in May 2008. Additional themed stakeholder workshops were carried out in March and August of 2008 along with ongoing Land Owner and Developer consultation.

Stage 3: Preparation of Consultation Draft Hackney Wick Area Action Plan (Phase 1) 

The findings of the community engagement and baseline assessments generated a range of proposals for potential inclusion within the Draft Phase 1 AAP. The consultation draft for Hackney Wick was developed with input from key stakeholders.

Stage 4: Consultation (Regulation 25)

The Draft Phase 1 AAP underwent extensive ten week formal public consultation between December 2009 and February 2010.  

Stage 5: AAP (Phase 1)

Consultation responses were assessed following the consultation period and the Phase 1 AAP was revised where appropriate. The document was adopted by Council in September 2010 as an interim policy document.

Stage 6: AAP Preparation

Since initial adoption in September 2010, there has been ongoing engagement with various groups, Council Members and stakeholders in Hackney Wick which is set out in Appendix 2. The AAP has been updated to ensure conformity with the Core Strategy and London Plan.

Stage 7: Publication (Regulation 27) and Representations relating to the AAP (Regulation 28)

The current stage of AAP Production is Publication where public representations on the soundness and legal compliance of the AAP can be made within a 6 week period. View the current stage of AAP Production.

Stage 8: Submission to Secretary of State (Regulation 30) - Current Stage
