"No more Flats plea" for Utting Avenue and Darmonds Green, Anfield

At the area Committee 24th August Liberal Party Cllr Steve Radford asked the committee to strongly oppose plans to build 7 flats on Utting Avenue. which would form an infill site amoungst an estate of established semi's.

He also asked them to oppose plans for 19 flats at the entrance to the Darmonds Green estate, Anfield 

"This perverse Lib Dem council is wasting millions of pounds demolishing terraced properties on the pretence of market failure but at the same time approving more and more flats when we know there is already an overwhelming excess", he asked councillors to look at New Road Court flats to see how companies like Barratt's produce shoddy and unstable developments and then walkaway thereafter

The objections also included concern at the implication of additional traffic entering heavily used arterial routes at both locations.

The Area committee supported Steve's objections which will be relayed to the Planning Committe who make the decision
