The appeal inquiry began on 7th September and has reached the end of its allotted time (24th September) without hearing all scheduled topics. The evidence, questioning and discussions have taken much longer than expected and last week ended with the topic ‘Highways’. There will now be a break until 5th November.
A further 6 days have been allocated to the inquiry at mutually agreed dates. These remaining agenda items are as follows:
5 & 8 Nov - Education 25/26 Nov - Planning 13/14 Dec - Closing submissions
Please keep checking our website and Facebook page for progress reports and news once the inquiry reconvenes.
A final note: thanks to our entire community for the unwavering support that has been given throughout this whole process. It shows how much our community and environment matter to us all. Keep up the support and help save our AONB!
