Planning Committee deferred.
Due to an oversight, CYC have failed to send out letters to objectors notifying them in advance of the details of the planning committee meeting. This means that no decision can now be taken at tomorrow’s meeting.
Large numbers of objectors turned out for the site-meeting today and were greeted by Roger Armistead who notified them of the council’s error.
Meanwhile, the RMBI have submitted yet further amendments to the plans in order to try and overcome the objections in Darren Hendley’s report.
It is not known when the application will be heard – it could be deferred until September.
We will be posting comments on the amended plans asap.
We were also informed that Darren Hendley is no longer employed by CYC and has moved to new employment elsewhere. This was a surprise to everyone and is regretted.

The proposal is reccommended for refusal on grounds that the bowling green is not of sufficient quality.
The committee meeting commences at 4.30pm with Connaught Court being 5th on agenda. The site meeting starts at 1.20 at the entrance to Connaught Court. Please come along if you are able.

It seems that the council is allowing the RMBI to revise their plans once again and there will be further re-consultation with residents before the application can be determined. Will it be June? Who knows? The problems of the bowling green have been obvious from the very beginning and it is outragous that the council did not advise the developers before now that the green is unfeasible in its present location.

There is a continuing problem with the council’s website which will not allow objections to this application to be made online.
CoYC are aware of this assured us some time ago that they will try to rectify the fault. Lucky we are so patient!

The deadline for objections is April 18th and it is advisable to write as soon as possible, but it is still worth objecting even if you miss this date because all representations will continue to be accepted right up to the Committee meeting – probably 31st May with site meeting on 30th.

All our previous objections to this development remain and the latest revisions do not begin to address the major problems.
We are reliably informed that the earliest date for the Committee to decide on the scheme will be in May – possibly the 17th.

Some of these have not yet been advised to residents by CoYC.
