Residents who attended last nights meeting voted unanimously that the Association should put in a written objection to the proposed development of 20 residential units on the current site of Brookside Bungalow on Lambgates Lane, Hadfield. Planning officers are of course recommending approval when it comes up before the Development and Control Committee next Monday 11th August.
(Ref No. HPK/2008/0369 click here to see planning application)
This comes as no surprise whatsoever to residents of the area who are used to being on the wrong end of atrocious decisions made by this committee to the severe detriment of the area.
In it's report to the committee, officers note that the large number of responses, the vast majority of which are against the proposal, come mainly from the local Hadfield area of Lambgates, Valemount, Rhodeswood, Wilmans Walk and Maguire Avenue.
Once again they choose to ignore local opinion in order to cash in on grants and to oversubscribe their housing quotas in an area that is awash with unsold properties.
