Extension of working hours at Ram Hill Business Park refused

This afternoon the planning committee narrowly voted against plans to extend the working hours at Ram Hill Business Park.

A neighbour spoke eloquently about the impact 6am starts and Saturday afternoon working would have on her family's wellbeing and that of other residents. Claire Young was there too to speak on the three applications and two Greenacres Park residents turned up to demonstrate the concern of residents there.

Claire earlier spoke on an application for a heating fuel distribuion centre on the Badminton Road Trading Estate. After some discussion of the planning policy implications, the committee unanimously approved that application in line with the officer's recommendation.
