Before the Council meeting on Thursday night, there was a meeting of the Development Committee.

Three planning applications were considered.

The very small traveller site at The Pear Tree, 750 New Park Road, Hockley was given temporary permission.
The very small traveller site at Land West of The Pumping Station, Watery Lane, Rawreth was refused. Councillors were concerned about highways issues, flood risk and green belt policy.
A proposed car boot sale at Rayleigh Station Car park on Sundays was refused. (although they can still hold one for up to 14 days a year without permission)

  • Concern about Highways, flooding and green belt from a very small travellers site but not a massive new housing development seems hypocritical to say the least. Still, I suppose it is nice to know we still have a greenbelt policy, even if it can be torn up as and when RDC feel like it.
