Devizes Road housing application PL/2022/07977.
Further thoughts on the application.
The latest comment from Natural England seems quite damning.
On 29th November, Natural England wrote to WC saying "Bath & Bradford on Avon Bat SAC - Objection lack of information".
The Decision Deadline Date is shown on the WC planning portal as the 15th December. Will WC defer a decision and risk the applicant going to the Planning Inspectorate for 'Non determination', or will WC refuse it? It will surely not be sent to a WC planning committee next year with a recomendation for permission?!
If the application is refused the applicant can appeal the refusal, or re-submit at a later date with updated studies on bats etc.
What will the decision be? Surely, one of the two 'non-permission' options above.
