As Liz points out it's also important to email councillors and your local residents groups and let them know your feelings so they can formulate a response too.
7 comments! They'll have to get the fellow who 'processes' the comments out of the pub this afternoon! I wonder if this will translate into a 'record response'. I was number 06
I found a dedictaed Wood Green SPD microsite with an optional route for comment. Have added a link for this + other routes to comment in the original posting up top.
I know it's a completely different issue Liz, but I didn't have much luck emailing councillors and local residents groups on the issue I had with HMO/ planning appeal next door:
Yes I keep meaning to go to meetings, but never find the time. Do find time to get distracted at work on here tho'......it's my creative licence ;o)
Got some responses from local councillor, but.....
Someone contacted me from residential groups, I sent the petiton via email and no luck there either.....
I guess you cannot beat the traditional method of turning up and getting signatures. I also considered knocking on my neighbours doors, but my other half recommended I do not do this in case I knocked on the wrong door!
Unfortunately I am not getting the support I would like from my downstairs neighbour either (who is most effected by the building)
I would like to do more, but it's the time issue......
Really, Colin?! I sent you two messages on 19th May, inviting you to the WRN4RA mtg on Wed 28th with your petition relating to No.11 Alroy. I arranged to have the first half hour for you to explain the case and get as many signatures as we could from members present. You promised to send the petition for signing, if you couldn't be present yourself.
We held our mtg on Wed 28th and waited. No Colin and no petition!
I'm a member of the RA, not the Chair, Secretary etc. That's why I asked you to send it to the RA's email address, not mine. I've just returned to London at 10pm tonight after four days' absence to hear that our RA had received the petition by or before the weekend. I'm sure we could have responded with the urgency you asked for if you could have spent even five minutes at our meeting or sent the petition through anytime after 19th May.
Colin, I'd have sent this as a personal message if you hadn't mixed us all together in a discussion that has nothing to do with No.11 Alroy. I'm not sure that any lack of progress is down to local RAs, certainly not WRN4RA.
I'm sorry you took offence, though I was careful to not mention names. Obviously a mis-communication with regard to the email address you sent. I will make more effort to attend the meetings in future.
I've just registered, though not posted yet. STILL no comments? What is the point of having such a whizzy internet site and not actually showing what people have said. Even allowing for the time taken to process the comments we've been discussing here, surely someone else has posted something (surely???).
From the discussion yesterday, we worked out that there are at least 7 comments posted on the document but ,according to my 'profile', they are still in the 'process' stage. I tried to see the comments from the housing SPD which has closed but the 'Who said what?" button brings up nothing ,so I emailed the dept asking about access to people's comments. Still no answer.
I don't know how that thing works or why it should take over 24 hours for a simple 4 line comment to be processed. I have grave doubts about the effectiveness of this form of 'Consultation'.
