Petition for a Judicial Review

Please support this petition - lets tell the Parish Council what they need to do.

The Parish Council have significant resources in the form of the taxes we have paid over recent years.  This petition asks them to use some of these resources to fight the decision by MSDC to completely ignore the Neighbourhood Plan and grant a consent for development at Friars Oak Fields.


A Judicial Review can overthrow a decision like this on a point of law.  The Officer recommendation was wrong at law, they gave no weight to the Neighbourhood Plan.
