@DaraMorefield@CambsCC@SmarterCam@Sam_in_Cam This was very much a joint effort of local councillors, two residents’ associations (South Petersfield and Great Northern Road), many individual residents, @SmarterCam and @camcycle. We now have an opportunity to get the final phase of the CB1 development right for the long-term.
Campaign success: the @camcitco planning committee has voted 5-2 to reject permission for a new development near Station Square. A key reason was the need to safeguard the Chisholm Trail and other walking and cycling access in the area for all ages and abilities. /1
View from the train gives an idea of the scale of the Mill Road #Ironworks development. The 4-storey block on the right is ahead of the others because it has no underground parking.
@Hill_Group_UK @FishIslandE3 @MetroUKNews ⚠️ Hill are known to appeal against their planning obligations *after* all homes have been bought - #BuyerBeware ⚠️
@KelleyGreen2013 Hill were happy to build the development accepting the planning permissions granted.
It should not be up to them to pick and choose which conditions they comply with *after* all the flats have been inhabited and bought.
