No Incinerator in Monklands (Monklands Residents Against Pyrolysis Plant)Monklands has one of the highest rates of COPD in the UK and exceptionally high levels of pollution. To operate an incinerator in the middle of where we live, work and where our children attend local schools and nurseries will be detrimental to the health of the most vulnerable in our community. The emissions from this proposed plant will not only disperse in Shawhead and Carnbroe, but also in the wider area covering Airdrie, Bellshill and potentially further. If you live in North Lanarkshire we ask you to sign asap. This is not just for you but for your children and grandchildren.1,985 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Maggie Proctor

Save Nidd Gorge and The Nidderdale GreenwayOn December 7th 2017 the Harrogate Area County Councillors decided - by 14 votes to 2 - to remove the inner relief road option (package E) from the public consultation into traffic congestion in Harrogate. The Harrogate Area Committee took this informed decision following widespread concerns about: 1) The environmental harm a relief road would do to Nidd Gorge and The Nidderdale Greenway. 2) The unacceptable increase in traffic through the community of Bilton. 3) The ineffectiveness of relief roads as a solution for congestion relief. The councillors are our democratically elected representatives in Harrogate & Knaresborough. Their overwhelming opposition to the inner relief road must be respected by the Business and Environmental Services Executive and the North Yorkshire County Council Executive. The democratic will of the committee should have been be upheld by North Yorkshire County Council on December 15th 2017, but this didn't happen... Instead, after a year delay, - and after failing in their promise to gather more information about the environmental impact of the road, particularly on Nidd Gorge and The Nidderdale Greenway - NYCC are bringing the inner relief road package (E) forward for public consultation in 2019. The road continues to threaten Nidd Gorge, the Greenway and the communities along its route. This petition will continue until the road threat is lifted - as a register of opposition to the road - please continue to sign and share.6,416 of 7,000 SignaturesCreated by Chris Kitson

Save the Trees on New Road, St Johns WorcesterTrees give a place character and help filter out pollution along that busy road. These trees have been there for almost 100 years and even if replanted (which is unlikely) will never be as majestic! It will ruin the character of Worcester and will completely change the view from St Johns into Worcester and vice versa.4,072 of 5,000 SignaturesCreated by kerry smith

Extend Consultation Period for Stretford Masterplan.Some of these concerns are (but not limited to) the haste with which the plan has been launched with seemingly little data, plans or research available to residents to substantiate claims of regeneration. Furthermore, there has been information emerging throughout the process that has caused alarm such as the design of the scheme, environmental impact, impact upon current residents and loss of public facilities and access to public space. Whilst we broadly support a vision to regenerate our town centre we cannot support a Masterplan which shows no consideration for incumbent residents and any impacts upon them. With further information it is entirely possible that we would support this plan - however as such information is not forthcoming we ask you to extend consultation and engage with the community meaningfully and openly. For further information - on twitter @m32dogs or [email protected] or facebook 'Development Opportunity Group for Stretford 'https://www.facebook.com/groups/347186892414426/317 of 400 SignaturesCreated by John Naughton

Save The Three TunsThe Three Tuns is a much loved local public house which is not only a part of the local community but contributes to the local community through its regular fundraising activities and events. Furthermore it is a significant outlet for sales of beers produced by the Drone Valley Community Brewery, which itself donates profits to local good causes.717 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Mick Coles

Demand for traffic calming measures on Holly Hill Road, NorthfieldDuring the last six months, dangerous drivers have flew across the junction at Holly Hill Road, and ended up damaging property and vehicles on Frogmill Road. This has happened 3 times, resulting in two vehicles being written off and significant damage to property. On the third occasion, a stolen vehicle actually came through our front garden, into my car, and through our front wall, resulting in car headlights in our living room (I was on the sofa at the time!). Neighbours on Frogmill Road strongly feel that traffic calming measures such as speed bumps would prevent this kind of incident from occuring again. These incidents are not just happening late at night, my neighbour's car was written off at 11.00am, while our home was crashed into at 8.30pm. If any pedestrians had been using the foot path at this time, they would be dead. I have emailed a local counsellor (Glenn Smith) who has advised that, at this present time, the council will not be looking into the issue of dangerous driving on Holly Hill Road, as nobody has died or been injured within the last three years. Please sign this petition so that the council can see how concerned the residents of Holly Hill/Frogmill Road are.230 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Rebecca Brookes

Save the Carlton Tavern Pub, AcombThe Carlton Tavern Pub is a non-designated heritage asset of strong architectural and historic interest to the City of York. It is also a much-valued community asset in Acomb and Holgate. The Victorian Tudor-style landmark sits in landscaped grounds surrounded by mature trees, and adds greatly to the character of the area. A purchase proposal has been put forward to refurbish the pub and provide holiday accommodation for race goers and visitors to York, as well as a community pub, restaurant and deli. The community interest company would run a training and support programme for local young people, the long-term unemployed and start-up businesses that would invest profits back into the surrounding area. Despite all of this, the demolition of the Carlton Tavern is now proposed as part of a luxury residential care-home scheme, without proper consideration of options that would enable the building to be kept. The City of York Council has already approved its demolition at their Planning Committee meeting in October with a finely balanced tie vote of 6-6 swung by the Committee Leader. However, scrutiny of the decision-making process from the Victorian Society and local residents has resulted in the Council going for an unprecedented re-vote on this issue. The re-vote has been earmarked for the next Planning Committee Meeting on 13 December. This means that we have just a small window now to make sure that Councillors know how much we value the Carlton Tavern as both a historic building and as an Asset of Community Value, listed by your Committee earlier this year. City of York Councillors, please don't approve the unjustified demolition of the Carlton Tavern again!1,135 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Anna Shelley

Platt LaneThe footpath on Platt Lane in Keyworth is used by many walkers and only half of it has footpath. The speed limit on the section of the road without the footpath is 60mph and even if the speed limit was lowered it would still be dangerous as it has many blind bends. It is only a matter of time before someone is injured or there is a fatal accident.577 of 600 SignaturesCreated by Linda Lloyd

Petition against Welsh Harp 25 metre phone mast (PA 17/4597)The Welsh Harp is the only Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in Brent or Barnet and is home to a wide and rich diversity of wildlife. We are concerned by evidence suggesting a detrimental impact of wireless cell towers on wildlife as well as the building of such a visibly obstructive structure on the appearance and openness of this piece of Metropolitan Open Land. We believe that to give permission to this structure runs contrary to Brent Council's policy on the Protection and Enhancement of Open Space, Sports and Biodiversity. The proposed improvement of 3G coverage resulting from the mast would appear to only benefit a very small area and is disproportionate to the greater disruption of land and surrounding wildlife. The Welsh Harp is a truly unique and important site to local residents but also in its wider scientific, ecological and natural beauty value across London. It is our responsibility to preserve it for generations to come. We therefore strongly object to the approval of this site for the construction of a Mobile Telephone Mast under application PA 17/4597.
