Albert Dock: LHNCC’s objection
LHNCC objected because, among other things.
- The alteration of the barrier is without planning permission and hence breaches legislation and various policies.
- The application does not meet local development plan and other requirements.
below is the text of LHNCC’s objection: here is the original as a PDF.
