Please note important dates once again re. the dire situation in Falmouth, which has come under fire from all sides - and from within - by totally out-of-control developers cashing in on Phil Mason’s weak and ineffectual planning department: www.saveourfalmouth.com/whats-on Meanwhile, down west: This has been said many times over the last few months. www.change.org/p/cornwall-county-councill-stop-the-free-range-egg-farce/u/22034273 “You just couldn’t make this up” Over the last two weeks we have found the submitted LVIA is not quite what it seems!! The decision to move the red line boundary has finally happened, where, we do not know!! The promised job creation is actually a deficit of roughly 14,300 man hours!! The ridge and furrow system was apparently only a voluntary gesture to reduce run-off, this will not happen now and no other plan to reduce the risks have been submitted to date!! We could have withheld these vital pieces of information and waited until the strategic planning committee meeting, this I believe may have put the application in a very difficult position, however, being an honest, decent, transparent and upfront bunch, we played it fair. We hope the decision makers and local residents will be afforded the same level of treatment. We are due another round of consultation due to what we have highlighted and the Council requiring more information. Thank you for your continued support, NAG. http://planning.cornwall.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?previousCaseType=Property&previousKeyVal=OPU1WVFG00B00&activeTab=summary&previousCaseUprn=010093599915&previousCaseNumber=OPU1RHFG00B00&keyVal=OPBXRQFGFYZ00 Comment from a puzzled supporter: "At a recent meeting of Mabe Parish Council three representatives of the University attended and stated that they were not in favour of a student village. It was also pointed out that they are apparently already in breach of their planning consent's as they have currently well in excess of their allowed student numbers. It was therefore something of a surprise to see they are entering into a joint venture with CCC to create a student village. They also stated they could not build the on site accommodation until they find a developer who is willing to build and fund the development. One must therefore assume they will seek a developer wishing to fund and build their new student village. Surely CCC has better things to do with its rate payers money than help out financially some multi national building company." Nearly 4,000 people are now calling on Phil Mason and his apparently failing planning department to quit; but that’s only 1.2% of Cornwall’s population. We need more support across Cornwall, as to the systematic destruction of our Duchy; as such, we urge you to check the list of villages below (excludes Cornwall’s 14 major market towns), and make sure your friends and neighbours are aware of what’s going on here, given their effective support, both financially and otherwise (by passive consent) for the current planning status quo.
