Eastleigh: Phone mast turned down
Just to let you know and pass on to those who need to know that last night the local area committee of Eastleigh Council overturned the recommendation of their officers and refused Hutchison consent for a 25 metre mast in some local woods. We got the support of our local MP, Chris Huhne, got 1200 signatures on a petition, had the local schoolchildren do posters, organised protest letters from Natural England, the Woodland Trust, the local Wildlife Trust and got help from Planning Aid, the pro bono arm of the Royal Town Planning Institute. The result was covered favourably on the late night BBC TV regional bulletin and by local radio and the local print media. It was probably more about local politics than planning law but at least we're over the first hurdle. Just thought you should know.
Cheers
