FUTURE OF THE FLEECE LIVE MUSIC VENUE UNDER THREAT AGAIN

London developer Edenlaw Ltd has appealed to the Secretary Of State seeking openable windows in proposed new flats directly opposite The Fleece live music venue. We strongly object to this (and so does Bristol City Council). Recent changes were made to national planning policy which requires the sound insulation of the building envelope to be optimised for new residences near live music venues so we believe it is vital that the proposed flats which face The Fleece have fixed shut windows. This case has now become the first test of this new national policy. Please support us by objecting to this appeal.
