Borough Lib Dems give thumbs down to Tory development plans
Lib Dems on the Borough Council have criticised Tory plans to add 14,000 new homes round the edges of the town - in Beaulieu Park, New Hall and Broomfield. Lib Dem leader Cllr. Chris Rycroft said, "These plans don't properly address the problems an expansion of this magnitude would have on town services and would fundamentally alter the character of the town's periphery."
