It'll be fine, don't worry

Whilst this Planning Application is the most important thing on our radar at the moment it is only one of many applications that the Secretary of State/Planning Inspectorate are dealing with at the moment. Delays are not uncommon and invariably do happen.

As I have said earlier no reason for concern.

What a farce. 2 days won't make much difference but any longer and I can see the fat lad getting a number of emails/calls. Anybody got his email address just in case. Is it care of Gregs the bakers?

This is the answer -

Dear Mr Stone

A decision on the proposed mixed use development (including community stadium and warehousing) at Newmarket Lane will not be made by the target date of 19 June. A revised target date has not been set but we aim to get a decision out as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely

I suspect that is good as we are going to get today. We might get an update tomorrow!

Re: Tick Tock : Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:55 pm  

deal with goverment agencies all the time, trust me this is normal, nothing to worry about, IMO a delay can be good news most times, so I's can be dotted and T's be crossed,



dont panic

Could it be political? If I remember correctly the LDF is going to be ratified on the 20th at a meeting of Wakefield council and after which the land will no longer have any green belt on it. They can then announce the building of a great new stadium and warehouse on a brown field site without any back lash from tree huggers.
Just a thought.

It wou ld fit in with the 48 hour delay so its entirely possible.

Other than the typical delays that can occur within governmental departments, could there be anything coming out of any woodwork to cause the delay ?
My naive understanding of the deadline was that the decision would be public by the 19th June.
