Failand dev

Plans for 500 houses on the Long Ashton side of Failand are being vociferously opposed by Hands Off Failand Green Belt. They have started a fighting fund to raise £20,000 to engage professionals to fight the plans.

There has been a public enquiry into the plans, held because North Somerset were deemed to have failed to come to a decision in time (although that’s debatable……), at which the barrister for the developers adopted a bullying stance. We are now awaiting the decision by the inspector who headed that enquiry.

If this plans go ahead it will be a major blow to the Green Belt – an unprecented incursion on a major scale.
