Council faces legal fight on housing plan

PLYMOUTH City Council is facing a legal challenge over its decision to allow homes to be built on one of the last green spaces remaining on a huge housing estate.

Lawyers have written to the council, setting out grounds for a proposed claim for a judicial review of the decision to allow five "affordable" houses to be built at Wilmot Gardens, Crownhill.

The letter was sent by London law firm Goodenough Ring Solicitors on behalf of claimant Frank Hartkopf, a Plymouth resident and Green Party campaigner for the Honicknowle ward.

He is described as "acting on his own behalf and with the support of local residents".

Plymouth City Council has been named as the proposed defendant and construction firm Classic Builders as an interested party.
