I find it a but of a mystery? If it wasnt for Prezza wed be screwed, it also make syou wonder why weve wasted so much bloody money on an enquiry when the results are just discounted anyway!
Why did the Falmer inspector turn us down?

The truth of it is this.
Planning inspectors have a very narrow training and most of their lives just apply well-used precedents to familar situations.
An application like Falmer is utterly unusual and needs a scope of thinking beyond the usual remit of a planning professional.
The community issues that this application throws up are too big for the "planning" brain to cope with, that's why it is vital there is political oversight in the planning process.
No doubt the Falmer decision will eventually make new case law in planning and educate the next generation of planning officials.

Must have had some sort of connection with Falmer Nimby Village Idiots. Either that or he hates Football.
