Residents have voted to reject a proposed referendum on a cathedral’s £8m annexe at a parish council meeting.
Around 250 people packed the city’s Holy Trinity Church to debate proposals by Stanley Mackintosh to hold the poll, which would have included questions on topics including the felling of trees, open space and impact on businesses. If just ten Ripon residents on the electoral roll voted in favour of the poll taking place it would have been called at the meeting, but he only managed to secure the support of five including himself.
The Very Reverend John Dobson urged residents to reject the parish poll which he said would save the city “a lot of angst”. He said: “What the cathedral is proposing takes a lot of understanding and can’t be looked at superficially. It’s also good that there’s a desire for the city to be together. I understand well that not everybody will agree but there’s no reason for the city to fall out with itself.” People at the meeting spoke out both for and against the annexe plans.
