The project hasn't been passed yet. Things were held off because of the election and now the election is over we can proceed again. There is a cabinet meeting due at the end of May when the Panopticon is on the agenda (I don't know why but it has been moved forward because I was under the impression that it was due to go on to the June agenda). Anyway, the general mood is now that certain Councillors who were saying no, no, no to the scheme have now decided to support it if it can be classed as a Coppice redevelopment scheme and the emphasis taken off the Panopticon.

I think that's why the general feeling is that it will get the green light - it hasn't yet and could still be turned down by the cabinet. Also, it has not got planning permission so still has to be approved at that stage.
