The application for flats to be built In Snargate Street / Adrian Street have been passed.The Labour group were apposed and queried why they were not affordable and no parking provision .This will alter the skyline. And the Setting of the Unitarian Church.7

I understand that the officers recommended the application be approved but I'm still surprised it got through in that form. The concerns about affordability and lack of parking are justified.

Yes Ray .I despair .I keep saying once it’s approved end of story.No right to appeal .Some one does not live locally will have a nice little earner.There was no 106. Money something the Labour Councillors questioned.
Another large house being built in that lovely hamlet of Coldred..

Surely there should be parking provision in this day and age.. parking around there is going to be a nightmare.

The role of the Council in managing controversial planning applications has not been beyond reproach, that's for sure.
Talking of which, I see that an application for judical review has been lodged in respect of the development at London Road, Sholden together with indemnification of the Council leader. The details don't appear to be in the public domain though.

I was talking to a lock-keeper on a canal in the West Midlands last week and observed that while most of the canals had teemed with wildlife such as ducks and coots and swans and so on, over the last mile or so I had seen hardly anything, and asked whether this was due to pollution of some sort.
He informed me there was a traveler camp nearby and they would 'shoot anything that moved'!

Going by the current state of affairs our cllrs will probably reject a proposal that removes an eyesore from the high street!

Yet more 'much needed housing'?
Remember roughly 200 more people drop dead in the district each year than are born!
Meanwhile :- The Home Office says 592 migrants reached the UK on 16 boats on Thursday - the highest figure for a single day. 25 people on one boat arrived on Friday.
Just saying .....

22/00107 Former Partco Autoparts Ltd
Granville Street
Dover
CT16 2LF
Erection of 5no. terraced RAM
dwellings, cycle/bins stores
and associated parking
(existing buildings to be
demolished)
Makes a change from flats.
Are RAM dwellings for sheep?
Partco haven't been in that building for years and the application includes the ex-Blackman building for years.
Hopefully somebody remembers the plaque on the building.
