Lightwood’s planning application had overwhelming support at committee and a resolution to grant planning was given. However, celebrations have been cut short days later following the Secretary of State’s advice to Aylesbury Vale Council that this application is being considered for call-in by the Secretary of State and so planning can not yet be granted.
Clearly there is significant political interest in this scheme and in light of the upcoming elections, political agendas are at the forefront of many community decisions.
