UNANIMOUS REFUSAL !!!!

At the Development Control Committee this afternoon, a unanimous vote of REFUSAL was agreed to the planning application for Willoughby Road.

WELL DONE to everyone who worked so hard to fight the proposal !

Andrew Senior Recommends Refusal

There is no more important man than Andrew Senior, as the Planning Officer for this proposal, and he has quite rightly put forward that the Planning Application is refused by the Committee.

Traffic Survey Submitted !

The Traffic Survey has finally been sent to Andrew Senior and Planning Commitee to assist with their assessment of the planning application. At a high level there has been 120% increase in traffic since the Leicester County Council Survey in 2006, showing that more and more cars are using Countesthorpe to cut across underneath Leicester and its surrounding boroughs. There were huge queues at the Willoughby Rd / Cosby Road Staggered Crossroads when we actioned the survey proving that it is already well over capacity - any development will further bottleneck the village. Fingers crossed the committee see sense.
