Under reports at parish council last night we learned that the Flitt Leys Close development brief has been sent back to the Central Beds (CBC) scrutiny committee, which had approved it, for another think. The decision was taken at CBC Executive this week. It followed rising concern about a brief which allowed for a school or 'school site' (there is some significance in the distinction, I understand) in the residential cul de sac.
Central Motors was identified as site for development under the CBC site allocation programme with 135 houses assigned. But its proposed access through Flitt Leys Close, also hosting a school and access to the proposed health centre has caused controversy. The close is already chocker with residents and takeaway patrons parking up.
Clearly the concerns of Cranfield have now reached the CBC bunker in Chicksands. But I can't see what fresh information councillors will look at which could possibly change their decision. Apart from the fact that most people think the whole idea is mad.
