HAAP: Schedule of modifications

Representation ID: 33352

Received: 09/01/2014

Respondent: Miss A Guise, LGSM, LLAM

Representation Summary:

The proposals will materially change the character of Hockley by demolishing around 2/3 of the village centre. This change of character has not been consulted on (but responses to previous consultations show it is heavily opposed.) The scale of change is relatively huge but little benefit and none of the key issues resolved - a poor plan which will damage Hockley.

As one who is unfamiliar with legal language, I am totally confused by Council jargon when discusions are reported to local taxpayers. The current document is a case in point.

However, I take this opportunity to express utter dismay at plans to change Hockley, especially to put a supermarket in Eldon Way. We moved here to get away from built-up areas. Small shops will suffer.

If more thought is given to the use of Bullwood Hall, may I suggest the Felmore Prison inmates are transferred to Bullwood where there is room for them. Alternative but if more houses are needed could this not be used for flats, or the grounds for houses?
