The Planning Committee are to carry out a site visit to the end of Francis Road which is subject to a planning application (2011/06797/PA) for 10 x 2 bed houses, on the land between the last of the houses on the road and the canal. I believe this proposed development is over-intensive (too many homes for the size of the plot), which means the houses have very little amenity space, so it is good to see that the Committee have decided they want to see the site for themselves before making a decision. The site visit will take place on Thursday 26th January at 1.20pm.
