FEB 2011 SUBMISSION to SGC

It's finally in the hands of the Independent Planning Inspector.
Friday 18th Feb was the deadline for submitting comments on the REVISIONS that SG planners had made to the Core Strategy and Sustainability Appraisal. Click on the TAB at the top of the page to read our full submission. Now we must wait to see if good reason will be listened to, or brushed aside. Is the promised "Big Society" just talk, or do the views of local people, and their criticism of local council bad practice, actually count for something?

Meanwhile, Barratt Homes are proposing an exhibition next
Saturday 5th March at Turnberries, from 10-4pm,
about their plans for housing on Park Farm. Surely this is a little premature of them? If you intend to go, be sure to make it known to them that as yet they have no planning permission to build at Park Farm, and our hopes continue to rest with the good name and office of the Independent Planning Inspector.
