The development's consultation phase (which closed on the 3rd of October) allowed residents to “have their say” on the plans, however after extensive independent door to door dialogue, it was highlighted that residents knew little or nothing of the proposed development plans.
Although the deadline for the first consultation phase has passed, if the plans are approved, residents will still have an opportunity to oppose the scale of development during the second consultation. The volume of objections does make a difference, so it is strongly encouraged that people get involved and have their opinions heard before it is too late.
On Friday the 1st of October, a residents’ meeting was held. Conservative MP James Grundy, Labour councillors Barry Taylor; Paula Wakefield; Christine Lillian; Joanne Marshall, and circa 50 residents attended the event - all party representatives advised that they do not support these plans.
