At their meeting today (24 February) to consider Persimmon’s application, the SCDC Planning Committee have decided to defer their decision. The Councillors have listened to concerns from Kesgrave Town Council (Councillor Jonathan Ogden spoke for KTC), local residents and other affected parties and told Persimmon they need to come back with ‘bigger and better’ plans if they wish approval to be granted.
More information when we have it.
Article in the Ipswich Star about the outcome of today’s meeting. Persimmon don’t (yet) own/control all the land that’s referred to for the larger, more controlled, expansion so we’ll have to see if money talks.
