Greenfield site saved from development -Tull Way

I have just seen a report from our planning officer refusing outline permission for a 90 home development, just north of the Thatcham garden centre with access off Tull Way. 

I presented a 424 signature petition against the development, to the West Berkshire Council Executive meeting on the 14 June, on behalf of the petition organiser Mrs Lisa Burgess. 

The petition header commented 'The views across farmland to the rolling hills are outstanding and maintain a green lung between Thatcham and Newbury. If allowed to go ahead the homes would increase the pressure on doctors, dentists, schools and the local road network.' 

The petition organiser has worked tirelessly on behalf of the community to keep this greenfield land from being developed.
