BRIGG HOMES PLAN STILL WAITING

At the height of summer last year we attended a Brigg Town Council Planning & Environment Committee meeting when councillors considered an application from a Lincoln company to build six new homes, with garages, on land to the west of Almond Grove.
We remember it was a pleasant evening so after the deliberations had concluded we took a walk to the proposed site, viewing it on three sides - from Ash Grove, across the Donkey Field play area and from Atherton Way.
Now we are about to enter April the following year and North Lincolnshire Council has still to deliver a decision on an application registered way back on July 29, 2015.
Most of the consultation replies came in last August (including Brigg Town Council), with The Drainage Team responding during September, North Lincolnshire Highways in October and the Environment Agency  in November.
A Noise Impact Assessment of the site also reached planners that month. We can't trace any further correspondence since then.
North Lincolnshire Council has now afforded "Pending" status to this application. We hope it isn't going to take much longer to deliver a decision.
