08.12.11 - Public Consultation Meeting Held in Maghull

07 December 2011

At the request of Local Councillors, Priory Asset Management LLP ("PAM") was pleased to have the opportunity to attend an informal public meeting last Thursday in Maghull to listen to feedback from local residents with regards to the planning application presently submitted to Sefton MBC for their new Extra Care facility off Damfield Lane.

The residents and councillors who attended the meeting were given an overview of the development and the planning application by Sue Tyldesley of Sefton MBC's Planning Department, with the opportunity to ask questions afterwards. Councillor Clifford Mainey acted as Chairman for the meeting. Stuart Grundy, Senior Partner commented, "Whilst there is a fully documented planning application on the Sefton Council website, I appreciate that this extends to many hundreds of pages and it can sometimes be easier to give an overview to address any questions in person and that the Executive Summary which was handed out after the meeting will act as a good reference tool".

As with the initial public consultation meetings which were held before the planning was submitted in August, Stuart Grundy highlighted, "It is key for us to have a working relationship with those most affected by the development and any feedback that requires additional thought will be followed up. As a direct result of the meeting, there are likely to be some changes to accommodate some of the points raised".

The benefits of the new development were outlined and that it will help go towards meeting local targets for Affordable Housing, deliver new employment opportunities for local adults and give the public access to new landscaped areas for the first time. 

Priory Asset Management LLP is a forward thinking property development company which seeks out opportunities to supply new, environmentally minded and socially acceptable Extra Care, Respite and Dementia Homes which will dramatically enhance the localities where they are built.
