Volunteers who manage one of South Bristol’s most popular wildlife spaces have said they are ‘totally disgusted’ with the way the council granted planning permission to build 34 new homes on part of the site.
The Northern Slopes Initiative said they are considering taking further action against Bristol City Council, and are demanding answers from council planners over what happened.
The group claim council planners had been working on plans for 34 new homes on Kingswear Road, then changed them and awarded themselves planning permission without going before a public committee - all in one day - on a day the council’s planning website was offline because of pre-planned maintenance.
