IN his report on the launch of the draft development brief for York University's proposed Campus 3, Richard Edwards inadvertently gave the impression that Heslington Village Trust supported both the expansion of the university, and its development to the east of Heslington. This is not the case.
What he omitted to report was that the trust felt that, for the city as a whole, its citizens and economy, the York Central site would be a more appropriate and sustainable location.
Neither the council nor the university have yet adequately or thoroughly explored this option as an alternative to the proposed Green Belt site.
