A resident from Deeping St James Parish spoke on behalf of himself and his two neighbours from Spalding Road; informing the Councillors that there is a concern that the new temporary building proposed at The Deepings School is too large with a size of 30m x 20m x 6m, which will affect the resident’s properties and south facing gardens and extra concern about the proposal becoming a permanent structure.
