New Consultation Annouced

06th March 2014
NEW CONSULTATION ANNOUNCED

Following on from the 2012 Consultation which you helped us by stating how you wanted Speckled Wood to have no Housing.

We tried to stop this at the Planning department stage during an Outline Planning Application where the Council Planners decision to un-democratically ignore the public’s request to save Speckled Wood failed thwarted by the planners Councillors Bruce Dowling (abstained), Councillors Peter Finch, Godfrey Daniel, and Eve Martin voted against Councillors Michael Wincotts; motion to try to make this part of Speckled Wood a Green Space.

The Council Forward Planning department has gone back to its 2012 Consultation, running a new Consultation in March and April 2014.

The Charity Friends of Speckled Wood will be running a fourth option in their Consultation to run alongside the Councils between March 10th - April 22nd 2014 @ 4:30pm.  The Charitys’ form which emails the council is available at http://www.friendsofspeckledwood.org.uk/consultation/. We would be grateful for any support you could give us during this period to let the public know that they can use the new information which has emerged to re-state their opinion on the Woodland to try to prevent this once more.

Our Consultation for the 2014 Council DMP giving better choice will be open on the 10th of March 2014 till April 2014 @ 4:30pm. Please use our web site and make your voice heard show the planners that their choices are not good enough. Demand this area be a Green Space . Last year we raised 1500. Votes which stopped the DMP. Please lets do this again until Speckled Wood is saved.
