Further to the letter sent to Burlington Property Group (ATTACHED), we have now received a response from their Land Director.  He has confirmed that they will no longer be pursuing the site to the west of The Street - so won't be submitting a planning application.  Below is his letter:

 

Hi Julien

Thank you very much for your email and attached letter. We are grateful to you for undertaking such an extensive survey.

Having reviewed the content, I agree that the message is very clear.

As a Team, we believe that this is a real shame as our proposals represented an excellent opportunity of turning a locked off inaccessible field into a multifunctional accessible and usable amenity space for local residents, whilst also delivering much needed new homes and community facilities. We would also have investigated the potential for infrastructure upgrades for the benefit of the community.

As mentioned, without community support we will no longer be pursuing the site so won't be submitting a planning application.

I would like to thank you and Marion for your willingness to engage.

Many thanks

Nathan
