Re:- Proposed Pedestrianisation of Market Square, Rochford

I refer to the above proposal which I read recently in the local newspaper.

As a small business owner operating in Rochford Square I am slightly anxious as to what effect this will have on my business and other businesses in the area once and if the parking in the Market Square is reduced or removed.

I would be grateful if you could answer the following questions for me:-

1. Is this proposal likely to go ahead
2. If it does go ahead what impact will it have on local amenities and businesses
3. Will alternative FREE PARKING be provided as it is at the moment in the square.

As a resident and business owner in Rochford you can obviously see my concerns, I would be grateful if you could answer the above three questions for me and supply me with any other information in respect of this that you feel is relevant.

Thanking you for your kind assistance in this matter and I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
