SUSMO AND ST MARY’S CHURCH NEED YOUR HELP
LATEST UPDATE:
Copies of the letters and emails received by July 15th about the appeal have been sent to the appellant, Professor John Dowell, and to the City Council. They are able to comment, before August 5th, on points raised in the correspondence received.
An Inspector from the Planning Inspectorate in Bristol will then visit Moseley and a report will be written, giving a judgement about the installation of the panels. It is hoped that this will be received in September.
SusMo would like to make it clear that the decision to install Photo Voltaic panels on the south facing nave roof was made by the Parish Church Council before SusMo came into existence.
The church applied for Planning Permission entirely independently of the British Gas Green Streets project.
After SusMo won the Green Streets award, St Mary's Church became a very active and valued partner organisation in the project.
There has been considerable press interest in the appeal, including:

An article in the Birmingham Mail on June 10th, “Church Solar Panel Appeal”, asked readers to write to with their comments.

The Death of Constance Perris - Founder Member of the Moseley Forum
Contance Perris - one of the Founding Members of the Moseley Forum - has died.
Constance was a strong & caring person, full of integrity, who worked very long & hard for Moseley Forum - battling through long illness without any complaint - contributing a vast amount to the success of the activities of the Forum and other local community groups, but finally succumbed in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital on the morning of Thursday, 22nd April, 2010.
She will leave a massive hole in the management committee of Moseley Forum and will be very sadly missed by everyone from the Forum, as well as all of those who met her over the years.
The cremation service will be held at Lodge Hill on Friday 7th May at 3.30pm. People who knew her will be welcome. There will be no reception.
No flowers, but if people wish to make a donation, we are asked by her daughter to consider Cancer Research UK
We would welcome any comments from any & all local residents and former colleagues, who knew Constance well, to submit their thoughts to be published on this site with this article, (if desired), and also to be passed on to her family.
Please e-mail your thoughts to the chair: Esther Boyd, or to the website administrator: Nasar, or via clicking on the 'add new comment' below.
