Do you know that the government is taking the lead to ignore the established Urban Design Guidelines which says that developments should not reduce the amount of harbour surface visible from the peak?
. Do you that our governement by her committment has to carry out sustainability assessments on any proposals, but the Tamar proposal has skipped such assessment?

It isnt surprising that your answer, like those from the public, are NO. It is difficult for the public (even for DSOBA smart guys) to fully understand the issues involved, as the vital information is either missing or difficult to find.
