Hoops Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Meanwhile in Ramsey, where an iconic quayside warehouse was pulled down against the recommendations of the planning officer brought in from the UK, we now have an office complex an ecological niche. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyesores and brownfield bombsites all over Ramsey, just as bad as Douglas, and it's been that way for years. Plenty of greenfield developments though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of greenfield developments though. Like where? You keep saying this but there hasn’t been any development in areas that haven’t been zoned for years and years for a very long time. In fact, as already stated Dandara recently had a big one is Ramsey refused. What about the Brownfield residential proposal MDC have put in for Douglas? Loads of complaints and objections by short sighted people Edited June 17, 2023 by Asthehills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are developers lined up to get cracking with planning etc as soon as their applications are accepted. Until that point they won’t be spending any further money. Why would there be a press release saying “XYZ limited have applied for assistance through the scheme, and should it be approved will be progressing with their plans” ?

I don't think it was refused out of hand. Dandara wanted to renegue on the requirement to build the required amount of social housing. They said that the site needed more money spent on it than they had anticipated, as they hadn't surveyed it properly. Probably a ploy to maximise their income without having to provide smelly housing for the great unwashed? A case of the planning committee doing its job properly! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which site are you talking about because that is absolute gash. Its concerning that two people who clearly have no idea what they are on about have already liked the post tbh.
