Just returned, with Jan and Dave Keep, from
attending the Braintree Planning Meeting. Mr. Aldous (Colne and Stour Countryside
Ass.) and David Lee (Chair of Bures Hamlet PC) both spoke well against the Gladman
proposal for 98 new houses.
Wendy Scattergood also spoke against, and informed the meeting that Natural
England had just announced Stage One Approval for the extension of the AONB
to include Bures!!
Cllrs unanimously rejected the application!
An excellent outcome and thank you to David Lee and Jenny Wright for giving
up their time to support our Community
