I have read the campaign page and have written to the website as follows:
Dear Living Streets
It is so true that "Your vital shops and services can be transformed without planning permission or communities having a say". Just look at wards corner. 90 local businesses under threat by the council's developer Grainger a plan which is backed by the council. Our council seems to prefer big schemes even at the cost of local businesses and choice.
For Wards Corner the council is so desperate has even decided to give the developer 1.5 million in regeneration cash even though the NDC residents voted against the grant but the councillors on the committee over ruled them.
Plus the developer still wants even more cash so the councillors have agreed an option agreement to sell off several occupied council homes for a mere £184,000. As there are no new council homes in the new towers so everyone on the site will be evicted. He council is paying the developer fees for the compulsory purchase orders. More money wasted for what?
All this at a time when the council is sacking teachers as it says it has no money. So we will lose loads of local businesses some that have been there for over 20 years plus lose more teachers due to the money being wasted on everything except education.
Vote out of their political party any councillor who agrees to the Grainger plan as they no not have the interest of residents and their children at heart
