Public inquiry to decide on 1,800 homes for outskirts of Milton Keynes
August 11, 2020
“… with the plans for road access blocked by Milton Keynes Council, the developers can’t start work on the site.”
I say yes and you say no… Not the Beatles lyrics from ‘Hello, Goodbye‘ instead it is the divided decision/vision of Buckinghamshire Council and Milton Keynes Council.
The new estate which has been approved by a vote of councillors from Buckinghamshire Council will require a new road access that is currently unwanted and blocked by the Milton Keynes Council.
One of the parties will have to give way and it seems likely that Milton Keynes Council will be the one having to back down as the deciding vote is in the hands of a public inquiry due for October 13, 2020.
