Stop property development on Holy Redeemer Church site

Stop property development on Holy Redeemer Church site, on the corner of Annandale Road / Days Lane.

***Please use new link and sign new petition***:
https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/holy-redeemer-residential-and-church-development

...Planning permission has been strategically submitted to ensure residents have the minimum time to respond against 4 x 4-bedroom, 3-storey houses being built in the church grounds and sold-off as a way to finance the redevelopment of the church, which includes a bigger hall, additional meeting rooms and a cafe - with no visitor parking facilities.

We have concerns that this will add travel and parking problems to our streets, as space is already limited, not to mention this will abolish the trees and hedges surrounding the venue.

Why is this important?

Some of the anticipated problems include:
- building works and roadway disruption (including potentially restricting emergency service routes)
- 4 new extra large, 3-storey, houses (out of character with the street), each with 2 parking spaces PLUS a driveway
- removal of parking spaces outside the church on Annandale Road to accommodate the above new houses - therefore leading to increased parking problems (not to mention nowhere for the numerous weekly church visitors to park)
- abolishing the trees and hedges surrounding the venue

In addition to signing this petition, please feel free to comment on planning application numbers 15/00237 (houses - deadline 19 March) and 15/00238 (church - deadline 31 March) via the Bexley Council Online system:
