18 Oct 2007: FOURTH APPLICATION REJECTED BY CARDIFF PLANNING COMMITTEE

Cardiff Planning Committee members accepted their Officers advice, and rejected, on eight separate grounds, Western Power's Fourth Application to build houses on Llanishen reservoir.  This means there will be another formal planning inquiry, probably at the end of May 2008, at which the Welsh Assembly Government Planning Inspectorate will consider the fourth application. Western Power's earlier plans have already been rejected by the local community, by the local Council, and the Assembly Planning Inspectorate; yet they still persist in pursuing this further application at a great cost to the tax-payers of Cardiff.  When will they get the message that we don't want them or their housing development, and just go away?
