No to Nursing Home

An application to build a 77 bed nursing home in Beeston was rejected by the Council's Development Control committee last night after Lib-Dem councillors branded the application inappropriate. Local ward councillor Steve Carr and chair of the committee David Watts both spoke about the application, saying that a building of such a size was wholly unsuited to the location, and that the impact on neighbouring proporties on all sides was unacceptable. Following this opposition the plan was rejected unanimously by the committee.
