Dinedor Hill Action Association Limited took Herefordshire Council to the High Court for not following proper processes in it's desperation to fund a road which is not needed.


The campaign against the Rotherwas road and proposed housing at Bullinghope is supported by a coalition of individuals and organisations. These include Herefordshire CPRE, the Save Bullinghope Campaign, Herefordshire Green Party (including Cllr. Gerald Dawe, elected on May 3rd for the Hollington Ward which includes the road) and former Lib Dem Mayor Councillor Marcelle Lloyd-Hayes, 624th Mayor of Hereford (2005-6)

The empty Rotherwas cul-de-sac was built by the Conservative administration against the advice of Government experts, Planning Inspectors, and the Council's own consultants.

ON THE ROAD...

"The Rotherwas Cul-de-Sac is a breathtakingly risky gamble with the financial and economic future of Herefordshire citizens. It will be funded through loans that stitch up the Council for years to come, through developer contributions which may never materialise, and through the Council's existing finances. We are appalled that such financial recklessless is going unchallenged by a weak Lib Dem opposition to a foolish Tory-led Council."- Cllr. Gerald Dawe, Hollington Ward, Herefordshire Green Party

Celebrations as Council told to get it's act together

10.00am this morning Justice Collins handed down a Judgement. BULLINGHOPE is OUT of the UDP.

It’s a strong Judgement and makes robust criticism of the Council for failing to produce crucial evidence.

Most of the points made by campaigners are set out and supported by the Judge.

Congratulations to Rebecca Rosseff, David Miller and all their supporters.

Full Council, Shirehall 10.30 TOMORROW Friday.
