20_10_2008 WRRG to Planning Manager



20_10_2008 WRRG to Planning Manager
ON THE 15TH MAY 2008 THIS GROUP RECEIVED A LETTER FROM YOURSELF SAYING THAT OUR CONCERNS HAD BEEN ADEQUATELY ANSWERED.
On the 25th September 2008 this Group received a further letter from you in which you re-iterate "I AM UNABLE TO ADD TO THE COMMENTS SET OUT IN PREVIOUS CORRESPONDENCE TO YOU"
Having confirmed your position you then unexpectedly invite our Group to discuss our concerns directly with you at a meeting.
To be able to be in a position to fully engage, this Group requires the following information:
1. What legal advice and the subsequent reason given to the Planning Committee as to why the S106 Agreement should not be enforced.
2. As the S106 obligation rests with the new owner, could you clarify the position of the present owner in that, on legal advice, he would have no problem in defeating any enforcement by NDDC and would be able to recover his costs in doing so as stated in his letter to the Development Control Manager dated 6th November 2007.
3. Could you provide the substantive reasons why NDDC de-established the very important wildlife corridor at Scotts Moor in 2006. The Director of Devon Wildlife Trust has refused to provide an answer or discuss the de-establishment of the wildlife corridor with our Group (although in reference to the local Planning Authority NDDC he stated that they were still considering the issue - letter dated 11th June 2008)

If our Group is openly provided with this information we will then consider whether we can fully engage and accept your offer of a meeting to discuss our concerns.
