BARRATT York Ltd has recently submitted another planning application to develop the tennis courts and adjacent land at the rear of Clifton Preparatory School, 13 The Avenue, York.
Alas for the residents of Clifton, the plans are remarkably similar to the original plans that were turned down by the York planning committee earlier this year.
A councillor on the committee told Barratt's representatives at that meeting that any future plans submitted must not be just tweaking at the edges of the original plans if they wanted a favourable response in the future.
Tweak, tweak, the York planning committee is having its nose pulled in the grand Hogarthian style.
