Today/this afternoon Fenland District Council’s Planning Committee meet at 1pm to decided on 2 appications for Whittlesey.
Application one is for 175 homes south of 250 Drybread Road, Whittlesey, with the applicant being Alison Homes Ltd.
The second is from Rose Homes (EA) Limited for 249 homes north of 271-311 Eastrea Road, Whittlesey.
Whittlesey town council is recommending the committee refuses both applications.
Planning Officers recommend both are approved.
It is very disappointing that no one is listening to us….(me and others) including the New Queen Street Surgery who have stated before they are at capacity – and we all know how difficult it is to bee seen by a doctor.
However Doctors are not a reason for refusing an application, however what I don’t understand is after years and thousands of £££ putting together a ‘Local Plan’ which was passed by all the authorities, stands do nothing to stop developments as these – on which the land was not designated for building……does that mean the Local Plan was a complete waste of time and money – it is looking that way – however we will have to wait and see if any priority is given to the Local Plan this afernoon.
Note I am no longer a member of the FDC or WTC Planning Committee’s
