Officers acknowledged at the meeting that they still did not have sufficient information, instead seeking conditions to approve them before work started.<br /><br />If it was right to defer hearing the application then, it would have been right to have done it last week as little had changed. Councillors are called upon to make unpopular decisions but these are only palatable if they are consistent.<br /><br />The first application on the site was dismissed in part due to the loss of outlook. A 66 metre long fence, standing 8 foot high won't do their outlook any good.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547393240463525682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-6220236610172465322009-11-22T17:33:36.424+00:002009-11-22T17:33:36.424+00:00In regards to the reply you have given to Adrian S...In regards to the reply you have given to Adrian Shorts, what detail did officers' say was lacking?

In it he says "Like so many local people, I'm angry that ruthless developers are swallowing up back garden land and turning them into multi-story flats, It's simply not right, and it is damaging the character of our area for generations to come". Talk about the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing. Are the LibDems singing from the same song sheet or what?Paul Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07833175169879492208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-46328448674693850702009-11-19T15:25:42.126+00:002009-11-19T15:25:42.126+00:00No. The situation was the same as the May meeting ...No. The situation was the same as the May meeting when councillors asked for more details. The officers themselves said that they had not got sufficient details.<br /><br />Cllr Wales was certainly spooked by the u-turn that he was forced to do on Beddington Lane after his colleagues played to the gallery then, but this was a different matter.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547393240463525682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-48413061825825970292009-11-19T15:20:28.380+00:002009-11-19T15:20:28.380+00:00Was this one of those occasions where the officers...Was this one of those occasions where the officers' advice was that if the applicant were to appeal they'd win and it'd just cost the council more money in the long run?Adrian Shorthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18250170055363571973noreply@blogger.com
