The 'Twin Towers' approved by Brent Council on the Chesterfield House site |
John Warren, the Brent Conservative Group leader has followed up Muhammed Butt's response to questions about his meetings with developers. LINK
Dear Muhammed,
Thank you for your response, and I am well aware that I should contact
our chief legal officer, as and, when I have sufficient evidence to put
forward a credible complaint.
1. It does not reflect well
on our F.O.I. reporting that we cannot get basic information right. How
many other F.O.I. responses are incorrect?
2. I still believe that L.G.A. guidance has not been followed.
3. I question why lead
members - as opposed to officers - need to attend so many meetings with
developers, notably Quintain, Hub Group and R55. It plays into the
widespread perception that their planning applications are given a
completely unfair advantage in the whole planning process.
How many times have I heard
objectors to developments say that "the dice is loaded against them?"
in making very real and reasonable objections. Minavil House LINK and
Chesterfield House LINK are glaring examples!
4. I do make comments of
objections / support on planning applications. I would argue that all of
my comments are on record - I do not have unrecorded meetings and I
have never lobbied a planning committee member.
