NIMBYs Of The Week

From The Chester Chronicle:

PLANS to build up to 24 new properties in Kelsall would be a mistake - say villagers. Proposals by Rowland Homes to develop homes across two sites at Fieldgate in Willington Lane, have been opposed by some of the residents living nearby to the proposed development, who claim the housing plans have ‘no relevance’ to Kelsall.

The planning application would see 10-12 large detached houses complete with double garages and car parking, built on land off Willington Lane, as well as 12 mews cottages that would be available on an ‘affordable’ shared ownership scheme, just off Green Lane.

If the development goes ahead, it would bring an increased amount of traffic to a junction already considered an accident blackspot...[etcetera etcetera]

Yup, once again, it's those who arrived last in the village trying hard to pull up the ladder after them. Where were their objections when their houses were being built over green fields?
