Even though a building has been on the site for c100 years!! it’s not designated green field, it has outline planning but what dandara wants is way outside guidelines Edited June 28, 2023 by Banker 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had they bought the site with an intention to build what was outline approved at the time, none of this would be occurring. If we were truly biosphere and wildlife orientated, this development would be out of the question in any case, as what was acceptable historically does not really fit with the areas status as an ASSI. I made the point earlier they bought the site with consent for X, they knew they wanted to build Y for a stunning bottom line, the prevarications and delays are of their own making. I am not connected in any way with Derbyhaven or its residents, but sites like the Fort Island one are few and far between and that should be maintained. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
