What does the Parish Council think?
The Parish Council was asked for its initial views on some of these TROs back in July 2020 when its provisional comments were submitted (see Minutes of Council Mtg on 20 July 2020), pending the public Consultation now in process. Further proposals have been added to the current Consultation since RCPC’s initial views were sought in July.
The Parish Council formally considered the TRO and all accompanying documentation at its Mtg on 7 December 2020. At that Mtg, it was unanimously AGREED that RCPC’s over-riding recommendation was that the TRO and its associated Consultation be withdrawn, pending a far more strategic review being conducted on the TRO and related needs for Rowlands Castle and its residents.
