Representation ID: 17417

Received: 21/03/2010

Respondent: Hockley Residents Association

Representation Summary:

The survey undertaken in October 2008 by HRA, HPPG and HUT groups was completed by 972 local residents and clearly showed that the vast majority want to keep the village largely as it is e.g
- only 5% in favour of major redevelopment of shops
- 78% against a new town square
- 87% supporting little or no change in Eldon Way.
- many free-form comments voiced the opinion that Hockley should remain a village.
The council has a copy of the report and details of all the manuscript comments.
We hope that the council will take note of these.

Respondent: Hockley Residents Association

Representation Summary:

Option TC16 (existing primary and secondary shopping frontages) should remain the Primary Shopping Area and encourage minor regeneration and improvements of the secondary frontages. Option TC15 is too restrictive and does not fairly support those shops / businesses away from the 'centre'.
