A judicial review into the process of selecting the proposed eco-town sites has been taking place in the High Court Yesterday (Wednesday, January 21) and today. It was launched by a protest group against one of the schemes in Warwickshire against the government's methods for compiling the shortlist of intended locations.
District council planning officer Neal Crowther told the sub-committee that the campaigners claimed the method of compiling the list was neither transparent nor democratic. "If they win, there would need to be complete re-starting of the eco-town process," he stated.
It's unknown when the case result will be announced.
