    As apparently 'nothing' has happened one wonders the need for a meeting such as this. Could it be that there is an election around the corner?

    This isn't a matter for Surrey. It's a matter for Spelthorne, and more specifically, the residents of Spelthorne. Surrey do not give the planning permission - Spelthorne does.

    Given that we are well below new housing targets & the push to identify both brownfield & greenfield sites with access to existing rail, roads, schools, etc can understand Surrey County Council ear-marking this land as a potential site for development. Its situated on thinly populated eastern end of the Staines Road East & is equidistant of Lower Hampton & Sunbury. Aslong as the development ensures an equitable spread of public/private housing I have no qualms with this private site being used to ease the housing crisis in the south-east.

    All the council 'heavyweights' out in force. Will they remember that this is GREEN BELT LAND?!

    Strange choice of Chair, since Mr Tambini has a lot to answer for.
