How ironic that Cllr Russell Quirk is "urging residents to fully engage with the planning consultation" on the William Hunter Way development when he, and his Conservative colleagues, voted AGAINST a Liberal Democrat motion to undertake a borough-wide consultation on the proposals in the residents' magazine "Vision".
Lib Dems say no to blackout.
Two leading Liberal Democrat councillors are calling on Cllr Brandon Lewis, Conservative Leader of Brentwood Borough Council, to give residents a cast-iron guarantee that Brentwood will not be taking part in any street lighting blackout programme that the County Council may be planning to roll out across Essex.
The revised plans for the development in William Hunter Way have been received by Brentwood Borough Council. They are with the officers at the moment however, according to press reports they include:
Wendy Way, chairman of Brentwood Bus and Rail Users' Association, said: "Those working at the intermediate stops before Liverpool Street will find it helpful and this will go to Whitechapel so it will save people having to change for that stop."
Brentwood MP Eric Pickles has been challenged to speak out following accusations the council's planning chairman bulldozed through an application for his political leader.
