Supporting Responsible Planning and Proper Process

A Judicial Review relating to the Primrose Lane development is approaching. This legal process examines whether the planning decision was made lawfully and in accordance with proper procedure.

Legal action of this nature carries significant professional costs.

Why We Are Raising Funds

Mudford Parish Council is leading the Judicial Review. However, the scale and complexity of the case involves substantial legal fees.

FOMAG is supporting the wider community effort by raising funds to:

  • Contribute towards the Parish Council’s legal costs
  • Obtain independent legal and technical advice where required
  • Cover essential campaign-related expenses

Judicial Review is not about opposing development in principle. It is about ensuring that planning decisions are made lawfully, transparently and with full consideration of relevant evidence.

Fundraising Target

Target: £24,000

This figure reflects the scale of anticipated legal and associated professional costs.

We will provide updates on fundraising progress and how contributions support the wider effort.


Why Community Support Matters

Large-scale developments affect not only Mudford but surrounding villages and infrastructure networks across the wider area.

Ensuring that decision-making is robust and properly tested protects long-term public interest.

Collective support enables the community to:

  • Ensure procedural fairness
  • Scrutinise evidence effectively
  • Maintain independent oversight
