Whittlesford Parish Council meeting on Tuesday evening covered a wide range of topics, including co-opting a new parish councillor.
One issue I reported on was what action the district's planning enforcement people are taking over the change of use of one of the commercial sites off Station Road. This was first raised months ago and I have been working with Charlie Swain, the enforcement officer, for a resolution. I spoke to Charlie today and have followed up with a detailed letter to the County Highways Department.
This is because the people using the site say they are about to put in a retrospective planning application, but before that can happen there is some discussion they need to have involving County Highways. I'm now chasing the said Highways Department (and copied in Tim Stone, our county councillor, so he can use his influence). What I want to avoid is this highways issue becoming a red herring that further delays the retrospective planning application coming forward for proper public scrutiny.
