A Government decision on an appeal is expected later this year
At a council meeting yesterday, an agent for the developers argued the reasons for refusal of the second application were “not justified” and that the council was only causing further delays for the site which is allocated for housing.
Despite Concert Living’s eagerness to develop the site, its proposals have continually failed to win the support of councillors and residents. Resident Janet Brook also raised further concerns over flooding in the area where she said several homeowners have had to install water pumps in their cellars.
Mrs Brook also argued that the development should be refused because Bentham is poorly served by public transport and has little community facilities.
