Local residents to Heigham Park remain very much against the council’s plan and are left with minimal faith in the planning process. Will the council now consider carrying out a proper and fair consultation that seeks to understand and leverage the views and wishes of local residents?
But Mike Stonard, cabinet member for sustainable and inclusive growth, said the proper procedures had been followed throughout the process.
He said: The project is now at an advanced stage and, having started, there is no requirement for any further consultation as part of the planning process.
Mr Stonard added that consultation was not the same as a referendum.
