Travellers on Herman Miller Site
We have again complained to the council about the travellers on The Herman Miller site.
We have asked that the travellers are moved on as soon as possible as they are making quite a nuisence of themselves.
The site is also owned by Lidl who have listed building planning consent to put a supermarket on this site.

Plea to New Housing Minister on ‘Studentification’
A Bath Liberal Democrat Councillor has written to Margaret Beckett MP, the new Minister for Housing, calling on her to carry on the work of her predecessor to give local authorities powers to tackle ‘studentification’.
In September the Government had announced a Green Paper which was a step towards finally giving Councils the planning powers to dilute high concentrations of student houses or ‘Houses in Multiple Occupation” (HMOs) in specific areas of their authorities.
Bath Liberal Democrat Councillors have been campaigning on this issue for a long time.
We were delighted when we heard in September that the Government was finally beginning to make moves on the ‘studentification’ issue. However a Government reshuffle followed and there is always the risk that the initiatives of the previous incumbent may be quietly dropped.

In writing to the new Housing Minister, to call on her to carry on the work on the draft Green Paper on neighbourhood studentification, We hope to get a commitment to this initiative and to the previously proposed timetable. Local Councils have been waiting for the powers to act on ‘studentification’ for a long time.
