Campaigners are set find out whether their fight against plans to build housing on green space in Lichfield has been successful.
A meeting of Lichfield District Council’s planning committee will take place this evening (8th February).
Among the items on the agenda are proposals for housing to be build at Netherstowe and Leyfields.
Thousands have signed a petition objecting to the plans, which come after it emerged a deal to sell the Lichfield District Council-owned land to Bromford had been agreed without the knowledge of the local authority’s leader and cabinet.
That decision has since led to confirmation that an investigation has begun at the council.
Campaigners also saw their case boosted by a report to tonight’s meeting that recommended the developments be rejected.
The meeting takes place at 6pm and will be streamed live on the council’s YouTube channel.
The planning applications have been deferred. Perhaps it is a good time to remind residents who voted which way in regard to the planning applications and whose interest they had at heart. Did they listen to the residents or did they not. It’s make your mind up time.
Deferred? More like delay tactics.
Never put off for tomorrow what you can do today. Unless you are looking for a big enough carpet to sweep it under !
Let’s ask the question of LDC we all want to know who is on the investigation panel? Poiret? Miss Marple? Benny from Crossroads? Beryl from the canteen? My old boss the Head of Economic Growth?
Come on if you’re not scared about it LDC speak up…..and I’ll add if there is fault to be found from the top…….the top level of the team should go, not just the Chief Exec!
