Live music venue plans for Priory Campus [read more]
CONTROVERSIAL plans for an 11-pitch gypsy and traveller site at Stairfoot have been approved for a second time.
Permission was granted last month but more than 300 people submitted objections after the deadline and argued they had not had enough time to argue their case.
A resident spoke out at the meeting saying the site was a dangerous health and safety risk, being next to the waste transfer station on Grange Lane.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
