LETTER: Democracy out of the window
I quote: “The plan has no site allocations for the 50 houses required, this allocation will be found on the CDC Site Allocation Document. The plan lays down policy for thedevelopment of the 50 houses.
“The CDC document currently shows Highgrove as the the preferred site for the 50 new houses.”

Similarly voting against the NP does not mean that the Highgrove Farm development will not proceed.
So we are now being asked to choose between nothing and nothing. Democracy out of the window once more and at the cost of an expensive referendum (our rates).
Perhaps a spokesperson will now clarify what the purpose of the referendum really is.
