To: SAVE KNOWSLEY VILLAGE GREENBELT

SAVE KNOWSLEY

KEEP OUR VILLAGE A VILLAGE.

PLEASE DO NOT BUILD ON ALL THE BEAUTIFUL FIELDS SURROUNDING OUR VILLAGE. PLEASE KEEP THE LAND SAFE AND PROTECTED FOR THE FUTURE GENERATIONS OK KNOWSLEY RESIDENTS TO APPRECIATE.

Why is this important?

What it would mean to the local community:
 The loss of a tremendous amount of Greenbelt and farmland.
 The loss of wildlife in the woodlands.
 The loss of valuable open spaces.
 Disruption of pathways.
 Loss of natural break from the other nearby communities, creating an ugly urban sprawl.
 An over capacity for local schools and doctors.
 Heavy traffic on local roads which are not suitable for the amount of housing proposed. They are already heavily used and always in a poor state of repair.
 More excessive housing would increase the carbon footprint.
 The village would lose its heritage. It was in the Domesday Book of 1086.
 According to National surveys Knowsley is already the 10th Unhealthiest place to live in the country! Knowsley Village is currently an attractive village at the heart of Knowsley authority.
 Keep Knowsley Cleaner, Safer and Greener.

We urge the council not to consider building on the Greenbelt or farmland, but to utilise many of the other concrete areas within Knowsley. These would more than meet the current housing demand.
