RECOMMENDATION C
In the meantime
It became clear at the meeting this was all about the Canal and not Measham, some think that this short piece of "cut" would attract more investors for the canal restoration, some actually think that a canal surrounded by housing would be a tourist asset not only to Measham but to the entire district, sometimes I just wonder.
The legacy for approving application would have far reaching problems in the future, it was not sustainable, all the other options were just to help the developer, destroy the last real asset the village has.
Measham needs the National Forest within it's bounds, this is the attraction, not housing.
Strange that HS2 could not be mentioned, but I'm sort of glad about that really.
The Ashby Canal Restoration, need to understand they cannot broker deals with Developers for Measham, just to extend a canal, and with the New Marina in Market Bosworth surly that's the new attraction for the district.
So let's see, shall we
Any one know if the cheque from UK Coal cleared?
In the meantime just enjoy the fields, the skylarks are worth any development refusal….
