We All know about the Planning systems, and the process of getting Architectural drawings granted. Most of use read all the dos and don’ts. And respond accordingly.
But who governs Planning Authorities, Who is it that has the final say in these deportments, dues anyone know?.
You see from what I’ve seen of Development Planning, it’s non-existent. I cannot take the planning Authority seriously. Have any of them really gone to University and studied, if so, should they really be Planners? How long have they studied? If at all.
I say this because, I always thought Planners cared about the environment to which development is introduced. WHOOPS this can’t be right.
Lets take a look at the Bournemouth Imax, that is now, after pressure from the public, being redeveloped. Another bad piece of planning is the road running across the beautiful gardens, in Bournemouth Centre, and blocking the unforgettable sea view, destroying the natural sea scape.
What fool gave permission, for this to take place.
I must also mention the sadness of original houses, Bulldozed to the floor, to make way for the monumental pristine, super steel enforced, toughened Glass verandas, of new housing spread along the seashores of Bournemouth, (pulled down twenty years later to make way for a carbon copy).
Hasn’t the planning Authority, realised that the long established History, and the environmental identity has been destroyed. Wiped out for ever, never to be brought back to life.
The Children and Adults of today, will now end up like our ancestors crying into Historical old photos wishing they could see Bournemouth in its original state of glory. But because of some short-sighted Planners, together with arrogant greedy Developers, its all gone.
Well done, give yourselves a pat on the back.
Sorry I've run out of Medals labelled 'gone with the wind'.
