Cllr Rory Love gained two major concessions from the Council's Development Control Committee on Tuesday 29th July as planning permission was agreed by the Committee for this controversial development.
Rory succeeded in providing more protection for trees around the site, and won support for preventing ‘contemporary’ style blocks of flats being built.
However, a succession of speakers failed to persuade the Committee that the development was over-intensive. Rory also failed to persuade the Committee to increase the number of shared-equity homes and reduce the number of social rented flats.
Although the Committee has agreed the development, a formal notice is unlikely to be issued for some time as the legally binding conditions need to be agreed.

Proposal: Change of use of ground floor from Health Club (class D2) to a Further Education College for adults with communication difficulties (class D1).
Deadline for representations to the Council: 16th February 2007
Rory and George are supporting residents of the Metropole in opposing this change of use. Both councillors believe this is an innappropriate location for the proposed development. The matter is currently being considered by Shepway’s planning officers. Rory will keep this page up to date with any further news.
As at 17th June 2007, this application has been put on hold at the request of the developer. This is apparently to allow further consultations to take place. Rory has criticised a “Cheese and Wine” open day to which Councillors were invited, as the event could have exposed members of the Development Control committee to lobbying and hospitality by the developers.

Since then, the developer has lodged an appeal. This appeal was heard by a Planning Inspector on behalf of the Secretary of State on Wednesday 25th October 2006 at the Civic Centre. Rory spoke at the Appeal Hearing, as did several residents. This was followed by a site visit. On 15th November, the Inspector announced his decision to dismiss the appeal.
Refused at the Development Control Committee meeting on Tuesday 29th November 2005. Rory spoke against the plan. (Refusal notice issued by Shepway District Council on 2nd December 2005.)
Appeal dismissed by the Planning Inspector on 15th November. The refusal of planning consent is therefore upheld.
