Amersfoort politicians ignore government service advice: ‘We hope they don’t regret it’

Amersfoort politicians ignore government service advice We hope they dont

The Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands (RCE) wrote a letter of fierce criticism to the municipality of Amersfoort. The government service fears that the Sam residential tower will cause irreparable damage to the cityscape of the Onze Lieve Vrouwetoren. But politicians ignored the letter and gave the green light. Is that allowed just like that? And how often does the RCE intervene?
