All good questions....

I think that the inquisitors have given the issue more thought than the council has !

Good luck with this campaign.

I support you!

Just for clarity, you may want to  replace "MP for Haringey" with "MP for Hornsey and Wood Green" in the last bit of the petition.

Caxton Road, Mayers Road, (I think Coburn Road?). The member of the planning team I met outside Morrisons pointed to the map and told me that these demolitions were happening because this way the new developments, including Station Rd, would compliment the arrival of the new CR2 station. It seemed odd to be making these massive changes to fit in with the new CR2 station if they don't know where it's going to be yet. Surely it's better to wait?

Yes sorry I'm referring to the Ally Pally station location here :) 'My' planner told me this was the one they're working to. Essentially what I'm getting at is that until they actually know where the new station will be, all the plans for new walk ways and markets and squares are sort of redundant. It might be prudent to wait before knocking down people's houses on the basis that 'lots of people will want to eat artisan sandwiches here' if we're not sure that's the case.

I was on the whatdotheyknow.com website yesterday, a site for submitting FOI requests, and there has been a flurry of FOI requests going in to Haringey about the HDV.  When and if they are all answered, they might provide a lot of answers.  Did you submit your questions as an FOI?
