[BBC News] Town planning needs 'team work'

Mr Malarkey said all the agencies, developers and the councils needed to work together to find a way of developing the housing market without creating any more "eyesores".

I wonder how many of these were also by Heritage Homes?

The South Douglas minister said more care should be taken when selecting developments.

 

Eh?.. :blink:

Now now Amadeus

 

Sour grapes are springing to mind here! :ph34r:

 

 

Last 10

Nope - I'm just sort of wondering since when he's a minister...

Do we actually have any kind of approach to town planning?

 

I thought they just threw up any old shite wherever they felt like it

 

 

There is supposed to be a Strategic Plan for the whole island and Local Plans for each area.

 

 

My copy of the Douglas plan shows a proposed road going up from the Peel Road to the back of the old Noble's Hospital. As they have allowed a church to be built there I assume they ignored their own plans.

Is that the Jehovah's Witness church? If so, hasn't it been there for quite a while?

At least 10 years, if not more, the old cinder patch leads up to nobles carpark. I think you will find that the proposed road was scrapped as it has little no requirement now the hospital is not there any more.

A lot less than 10 years! In fact the IoM Government Site still has it down as the old one on Withington Road.

Furthermore, if a new road served no other purpose than the demolition of Kingdom Hall, I'd vote for it!
