Cllr Deborah Taylor and Cllr Paul Baines, Ward Councillors for Anstey have submitted their comments on the planning application P/21/2668/2 – 200 Houses - Land South of Groby Road
Their main concerns in relation to the applications are as follows:

- Lack of available parking in the service centre
- Demand on our essential services
