April 2004
	Chessington Nurseries - Extensive redevelopment of site is being planned
	38 North Parade - Change of use has been granted from dry cleaners to cafe/sandwich bar
	Public toilets adjacent Southborough School - Planning permission has been granted to demolish these and use site to extend car parking for school
	Land adjoining 237 Moor Lane/Land adjoining 116 Chantry Lane - Application to erect a number of houses
	527 Chessington Road, Epsom - there is a proposal to demolish existing building and erect new building with several flats.
	The application to build 16 flats at 201-203 Hook Road was rejected at a recent planning meeting
	Developers are investigating the possibility of building on the site of the old telephone exchange in Hunters Road, gaining access through garages
	Chessington Parish Hall - Planning Permission has been granted for demolition and replacement with houses. (This application was withdrawn later in 2004)
Jan 2003	Road from the mini-roundabout at Ruxley Lane to Horton Lane, Epsom (alongside the golf course) - soon to become a dual carriageway
Feb2003	The current refurbishment of the well-loved North Star pub changed the face of this local landmark in two ways - one positive, one negative. The paintwork was smartened up which enhanced its already attractive frontage. The distintive sign hanging North Star traditional pub sign was lost to a fixed sign incorporating the chain name, Ember Inns. But a PLUS was the gaining of the word HOOK in one-foot-high gold on the front, under the pub name. Hook is definitely on the map after a threat to its future was rebuffed by a local campaign a few years ago.
	146 Moor Lane - application under consideration to demolish existing bungalow and erect a block of 4 flats
	102 Gilders Road - application to convert shop to flat
	Worcester Park - close to border of Kingston Borough - planning application for development of 450 houses on the old site of the Sutton Water Company Sewage Works
