the council’s report states (2.1) that “Part of the site is that of a now redundant mushroom farm, some of the buildings associated with which are now in alternative business use”.
I am aware that a complaint has been made to RDC alleging that a number of businesses are currently operating without planning permission from this site. This RDC report seems to be giving some degree of credibility to those businesses. Is this appropriate? Councillors should be aware of all the facts.
