Fairview Garage - Guilsfield A FORMAL complaint against the way a planning application in Guilsfield was dealt with has been sent to Powys County Council. In October, Powys Council s planning committee approved an outline planning application to build nine homes at the former Fairview garage in the middle of the village. But Guilsfield Community Council thought that the application was on hold due to the Covid-19 crisis, and had not given the county council an opinion on the scheme before it was decided. Guilsfield s meetings were suspended from March to September, and during that time members had not met to discuss the application, which was submitted to Powys in March.

Powys Council has returned to the emergency mode adopted during the height of the coronavirus crisis amid a rise in cases in Wales. The return to business continuity mode means the authority will be concentrating on its most vital services, and looking for volunteers among its staff to be redeployed from non-essential to frontline services such as social care. It also means that several council scrutiny meetings scheduled for this month have been cancelled, as staff are unavailable to discuss issues with councillors and clerking staff are being re-prioritised.
