December 16, 2009. I've just had an official letter telling me that the potential developers of 350 houses at Brizen Farm have appealed against non-determination by Tewkesbury, so the matter will now go to Public Planning Inquiry! Tewkesbury had, very sensibly in my view, told the developers, Newbridge Construction, that - given that the Inspector to the SD2 (Farm Lane) inquiry had said that application was premature - they ought to wait until the final RSS was published. But Newbridge have appealed anyway.
Does this mean that Newbridge think there never will be a final RSS, and are hoping that they can take advantage of a potential absence of overall planning framework if the Tories win the General Election? Who knows - but I hope that this cheeky application means they get landed with all the costs being awarded against them.! They must realise that this is a risk - but the potential for making money is so large they don't care. It shows what we are up against in fighting these big development companies!
