The 31 Paget residents had celebrated this past summer when the proposal was originally rejected in Planning.

The original application was granted in principle which caused the residents to raise objections to it.

The main objection was that Entasis Architecture used a different line to mark where an Agricultural Conservation zone began compared to existing site plans.

But the Development Applications Board recently approved the resubmitted plans for an apartment house containing three dwelling units.

Independent Planning inspector Peter Cummings, originally flown in from the UK last June to oversee the matter, had then recommended that the objectors' appeal against the Development Applications Board be upheld with the approval of Environment Minister Arthur Hodgson.

Mr. Hodgson had stipulated from his findings that a revised application for three dwelling units would have to ensure that no part of development trespassed the agricultural land conservation area.

Bostock Mews Development, represented by Entasis Architecture, had originally proposed five three-bedroom condominiums with a swimming pool covering approximately three quarters of an acre of the Bostock Hill lots.
