Rosebery School Planning Application refused
The Planning Committee has refused the application from Rosebery School to build 72 houses and flats on part of their playing fields. The school had claimed it was necessary to fund improved sports facilities. No planning objection was raised to the proposed new sports hall, tennis court or all-weather pitch, after the school dropped plans to floodlight the pitch and hire out their facilities in the evenings and at weekends. The concerns were entirely with the loss of part of the playing fields and the effects of the new housing in Rosebank.
