Bucks Sports & Social Club
At its Strategic Sites committee on May 9, Buckinghamshire Council voted in favour of the application to develop their former Sports & Social Club site. This was despite the councillors not being informed that the Parish Council had submitted a bid to purchase the site two months earlier. Resident support is required to help the Parish Council overturn this decision. Please contact your local Bucks Council councillor to voice your concerns about this ruling.
