    To re-examine the application in the light of amended plans received.

    Meeting 15.12.2015 – STC Decision – Objection
    The Town Council has objected to the previous applications for this land as they feel that any development would encroach onto a rare green corridor in Shrewsbury, which they feel should be preserved for the benefit of both the residents and the wildlife in the area.  Members are adamant that the green spaces within Shrewsbury should be protected and preserved without question and they have concerns that the proposals will have a negative visual impact to the detriment of a variety of people who use the area as an outdoor recreation space.  The development will set a precedence of urban creep into the Rad Valley and an erosion of valuable green space.  Shrewsbury Town Council objects to this application.
