The planners, architects, and developers must not be permitted to alter the whole character of the place as a sort of exercise in commercial convenience.
This last scheme is new townish in conception and open to objection by the more conservative on that ground alone were it not for its imaginative extension and adaptation of the idea of the Rows as existing pedestrian precincts.
" For centuries Chester has had what the modern town planners call precincts in the shape of the Rows ; and there was some fear that when the time inevitable came for the extensive commercial redevelopment in the city, the Rows might in some way loose its character.

The decision not to fund Chester's CDTS busway flies in the face of opposition from Government, their own Conservative colleagues at the Town Hall, business leaders and the silent majority who recognise something must be done to alleviate the gridlock.
It seems to me that their view that Chester will become gridlocked and the economy will shrivel up and die if the scheme does not progress is completly irrational.
This is not a good example of Chester for visitors who would supposedly have benefited from the busway, funded by the people of Chester.

Father-of-three Stanley Serenkuma walked out of Chester Crown Court a free man on Tuesday after a jury found him not guilty of raping the teenage girl in the back of his private hire car.
Forty-year-old Mr Serenkuma, married for 11 years, always maintained that sex between himself and his young passenger in the early hours of April 24 had been consensual, actions which he referred to in his trial as something he would regret for the rest of his life.
Despite an earlier routine visit from the police it wasn't until days later when he heard an appeal for witnesses on Dee 106.3 he said he began to suspect his accuser had changed her mind and concocted an allegation of rape.

These words of the Bishop of Chester, the Rt Rev Dr Peter Forster, are certain to add fuel to the fiery debate which is raging within the Anglican Church regarding sexuality.
Bishop Forster was speaking exclusively to The Chronicle as the Church of England unveiled a report, Some Issues In Human Sexuality - A Guide to the Debate, produced by a working party of the House of Bishops, on which he sits.
His view is that the Church should promote the institution of marriage as the ideal building block in society - but he stresses the need for 'maximum tolerance' of people who choose not to conform to matrimony.
