West Kensington and Gibbs Green
Planning for the future together
The council is currently consulting all residents on the West Kensington and Gibbs Green Estates and residents and businesses in the wider area on whether to include those Estates within the Earls Court redevelopment scheme by entering into a Conditional Land Sale Agreement with EC Properties. For secure tenants on the estates, this consultation process will also satisfy the requirements of section 105 of the Housing Act 1985.
Please see the arrangements for the consultation - Earls Court Consultation: Section 105 of Housing Act 1985 (pdf)
For some time the council has been working with residents of the estates and EC Properties Ltd (a subsidiary of Capital and Counties Properties plc, the owner of the Earls Court buildings) to explore the benefits of including the estates in the wider plans and understand and address residents’concerns should the estates be included.
To help understand what is best for the West Kensington and Gibbs Green estates and the borough more widely, the council has been exploring the potential options for the estates and has commissioned an economic study which looked at and compared the benefits of four options. The appraisal can be found below.
