They will accept comments until 12/11/2007. More details on the consulation itself can be found here.
If you’re stuck for something to say, have a look at the evening telegraph letter written by local resident, Elwyn Kitchen here.
The planning application appears to be in for the additional ‘vehicular access’ part of the plans. The planning reference number is 09/07/01696 and it can be viewed on the e-planning site here
The consulation letters have gone out to a very small number of neighbours, so please do add your comments by clicking at the bottom of the page linked above 😉 Without this vehicular access planning consent, I don’t think the build can go ahead. Do we have parking for another 3 houses and 5 flats on camp street?
The plans for the houses and flats can be found here. Note there were 15 letters of objection to these plans. It was still granted.
However, condition 6 states:
6) No dwellings shall be occupied until, after the granting of planning permission, a vehicle access / egress has been installed on Mansfield Road to serve the remaining public house car park. Precise details of the layout of the remaining car park shall also be submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority.
We have apparantley received new facilities where we can recycle our waste, here in Chester Green. A statement from the Waste Management Inspector is below:
A decision has finally been made to place recycling banks down on the car
park next to the tennis courts. These have been installed today and a
litter bin will be put out there next week. Obviously we will monitor the
site and if similar problems occur we may well have to bring the site in
again. Fingerscrossed this won’t happen!!

There was movement on the the coach and horses car park this morning in the form of some fencing being brought to the site. Does this mean that the flats originally proposed will be built? Is it the brewery fencing off the wasteland? Is it a new owner ? Who knows! More info/gossip when I get it!
