So he is not an unknown. Anyone who has needed to deal with planning and their errors or poor deicisions will be aware of Stallwood particularly as any contact by him has left a bad impression. He treats residents and their complaints with disdain in my expoerience of him. Having spoken to many people I am not alone in having been treated with contempt by him.<br />Paget-Brown had a chance for real change in the Planning Department. An new external appointee could have let some fresh air in the department (as it needs it).
