Collier Row Mosque in Chase Cross Road applied to extend its operating hours from 11am to 10pm, but Havering Council rejected the application due to the potential noise and disturbance it might cause to nearby residential properties. The mosque's original operating hours have undergone multiple changes since its opening in 1999, but the council is prioritizing community peace over extended accessibility. The decision reflects ongoing tensions regarding community space and the need for balance between local amenities and residential tranquility.
The latest decision by Havering Council to refuse the extension of operating hours for Collier Row Mosque aims to minimize potential noise and disturbance to nearby residents.
Iqra Educational & Cultural Centre's request to extend the mosque's hours was viewed by Havering Council as potentially disruptive, asserting the importance of maintaining the calm expected by local residents.
