You may remember that last week we told you about an argument between residents, the council and a developer over the future of the so-called Teletubby Hills at the Carlton estate in Lincoln.
Linden Homes wanted to give the land to the City of Lincoln Council but they'd only take it if they could cut the grass - something that would have been quite difficult given the shape of hills.
So the company decided to flatten them - however no one told the residents and when the bulldozers arrived they blocked the entrance with their cars to save the hills.
Well after getting together and talking it through they've come up with a plan, As long as the council approves the developers are going to build some smaller hills for the estate.
Sandy McFarland helped organise the protest, he says its all worked out in the end:
Quote MessageWith a bit of compromise and sensible conversation we've come up with a solution that's suitable for everyone I think.
