Tonight I attended the Planning Committee meeting at the Town Hall where the Tesco (Moreton Cross) application was listed for consideration. As thought it has been deferred for a site visit. This means that all twelve of the committee will see the site first hand before the hearing.
There were quite a number of objectors at the Town Hall headed by Stuart Beeston of Carousel Flowers. The debate got a good airing on this lunchtime’s Roger Philips phone-in on Radio Merseyside, including an interview with my colleague Councillor Chris Blakeley
Chris’s interview is on BBC iPlayer:
