STATEMENT FROM CONSERVATIVE LEADER ON WEALDEN LOCAL PLAN RELEASE:

From what we can see so far, the electorate were blatantly duped and misled.

Cllr Ann Newton, Leader of Wealden District Conservative Group

 

Notes: The Draft Local Plan Regulation 18 Documents for consideration at the Local Plan Sub-Committee to be held on 29 January are now available on the council’s website: Wealden Draft Local Plan Regulation 18 Document - Wealden District Council - Wealden District Council
