Butterstile Site Visit today

Today the Bury Council Planning Control Committee are visiting School Grove to see for themselves the traffic and congestion issues brought to their attention by residents opposed to the Butterstile Children’s Centre.

Whilst I am firmly of the view that our ward needs a Children’s Centre, I also know how important it is for the Council to listen to the views of residents, and for all of us to have confidence that due process is followed. At least now, if it goes against them, they can’t say that their views weren’t heard at all.

The Committee will come to their fair and impartial view as to whether the residents’ concerns are enough to warrant restrictions or amendments to the planning application. And I will let you know what their view is.
