GE Planning Application

On Monday evening, the Planning Committee considered the GE Planning Application and the public comments that it had received. After much discussion that Committee unanimously agreed to oppose the application. This recommendation will now be considered by Council on Monday 10th December.

To help them arrive at the decision the Council retained Planning Consultants on behalf of the community, to look at the Application and inparticular the technical studies. A draft of the response will be published shortly but the main concerns are about the Site Designation, Transport Assessment and Air Quality, Affordable Housing provision and the contributions to Fair Oak for the displacement of facilities.

Further updates will follow our meeting on the 10th December 2018.
