These cuts to service cause serious economic damage to the entire region. Many South West businesses rely on rail links to export to London and the rest of the country.

More than 2000 people have initialed the board to say they like the use of this derelict space. Now the Council request that we remove everything. There are no declared plans for redevelopment yet and until there are, we request that the Community Garden remains. Daily users of the Royal Hill Community Garden range from parents and young children, people with dogs, professionals at lunchtime, retired people, unemployed people, and tourists. The garden offers a unique opportunity for participants to create an evolving environment which is both educational and therapeutic. There are 30 different types of creature ranging from rare stag beetles, woodlice, slugs, snails, ladybirds, spiders, bees, frogs, butterflies, moths and dragonflies, to a wren, robins, sparrows, magpies and woodpigeons. The security of local shops and neighbours has improved and footfall brings increased business to the area. Thousands of people are enjoying the existing garden and appreciate its contribution to the community.

Disabled people can no longer park near to the parcel collection office. Instead, a taxi rank has been painted where disabled access used to be. Many people with a disability who are unable to walk far can no longer collect their own parcel. This discriminates against disabled people and impacts their independence.

The site of the proposed development is a hugely valued community resource, including Highgate Newtown Community Centre (HNCC), the Fresh Youth Academy (FYA) youth club, two working community allotments which provide the HNCC cafe with produce, and it includes three family homes, two of which have long term occupants. A general upgrade/renovation plan had been established, and local residents put an alternative to the massive housing development forward. But then the council upped everything, apparently interested in wringing profit from the project. They now plan total demolition of the existing building, replacing it with four huge buildings – a project that spells major disruption for at least two years, with a variety of problems for local residents. Cheaper and less problematic alternatives are possible. We the undersigned appeal to Camden Council to withdraw the scheme and work with us on such an alternative. ________________________________________________ KEY POINTS: • Camden have not proved they need to totally demolish Highgate Newtown Community Centre (HNCC) and Fresh Youth Academy (FYA) youth club • Many local residents have been against this development for months but Camden haven't taken their views seriously. One of our local councillors publicly pledged to not pursue this development without finding "a design that the entire community is happy with". We want to work with all our local councillors to achieve this. • Camden Council have a poor track record with major development projects, which are typically delivered over-time, over-budget and sub-standard. • FYA has had £300-400k worth of very recent investment, which will be wasted. • Camden Council say they do not want to make money from this, but they plan to save around £350k per year in revenue and may also get a cash windfall of around £2m. Our concern is that this is a high-risk strategy that could end up costing more than it gains. • The demolition and development will generate huge disruptions for local neighbours, nursery and schools for over 2 years with traffic, noise, dirt and pollution. • HNCC will only be able to run some services in those 2 years or more in different buildings in Camden and Islington. • Building 4 and 5 storey buildings in a small courtyard will substantially affect the neighbouring streets in terms of light and privacy. The proposed new building would tower over the buildings around it. • Sunlight/daylight studies in the council’s application show that many local residents’ windows are adversely affected by the development – losses of light potentially with legal implications. • 31 private dwellings built in a small courtyard to pay for this will add pressure to local services and notably increase traffic congestion. • A much-valued local garden in the heart of this conservation area will be lost, while an electric substation will be ‘gained’. • Two families will lose their homes. • HNCC needs to be given a long lease so funds can be raised to improve the building without having to move off site. ________________________________________________ FOR MORE INFORMATION VISIT: Friends of HNCC https://friendsofhncc.wordpress.com/ “Local residents for HNCC” – Facebook group http://tiny.cc/HNCC

The transfer and processing of waste in an urban area with ecological sites nearby is unacceptable. Increased noise, stench, dust and vermin on the site, increased HGV traffic, and an increased fire risk would affect: - residents' health, quality of life, and safety - local wildlife including protected and at risk species - air, water and soil quality - local businesses, private properties, a playground, schools and roads A factory that can process waste 24 hours per day, with HGV’s traveling through an urban area night and day is unacceptable. We call on Lincolnshire County Council to reject the application.

One life lost is too many and the people of Shotton want to let the irresponsible speeders know that enough is enough. Pedestrians and other road users need to feel safe in Shotton and the only way to stop speeding is to slow the irresponsible drivers down before another life is lost.

With the high proportion of elderly and/or infirm residents, added to the increasing population of mothers with baby carriages, the condition of the pavements in the Leiston Road and Victoria Road areas are extremely poor and liable to cause trips, falls and damage to persons and personal property. In particular the pavement on the east side of Leiston Road from The Drift to Mariners Way and on the south side of Victoria Road from the entrance to Kings field to the junction with Park Road, at the library, are main routes to both the supermarkets, and the town centre for residents of the Plantation estate, especially the supported bungalows.

This area has become increasingly populated with young families and children. Our children are forced to walk, cross and attempt to make school Transportation in a highly dangerous and om some of the most dangerous pedestrian areas in N.I. There are cars speeding up to 80mph on these roads, and the village doesn't contain one safe passage way for a child. Children are walking and crossing on blind bend's, nonpaved roads and blind spots upro a horrendous 8 times per day with out so much as a pedestrian crossing yet still expected to reach there school transportation in the village Main Street safely. This is particularly unfair for disadvantaged families who have no transportation, are disabled or have disabled children. I wish to raise awareness around my child making it to school everyday alive and that ofnorhers or a safer alternative put in place.as a temporary measure immediately.

The building of a three-story GP surgery is being proposed to replace three of the four surgeries in Salisbury, with the favoured location situated south of Lime Kiln Way to the west of Odstock Road, grid reference SU145282. Just three years ago the proposed site was designated a County Wildlife Site, and it supports a large population of wildflowers, insects, and birds. This site is of great importance not just because of its beauty and the luxury of having a patch of natural meadow on Salisbury’s doorstep, but also due to the sad fact that in the last 70 years Britain has lost 97% of its wildflower population[1]. Even if you do not have a particularly strong feeling towards wildflowers, you must appreciate the sheer importance of having a site like this to support insects and the birds that depend on them. Other options for the site’s location include the now-empty Friends Provident buildings in Castle Street, and the agricultural field directly opposite the proposed site, to the east of Odstock road. In total there are 17 proposed sites, with Lime Kiln Way being preferred presumably because it is cheaper to build on as it is owned by the Council. This proposed site will inevitably lead to increased traffic at the already highly-congested Harnham interchange, which would in turn lead to difficulties getting ambulances to and from Salisbury District Hospital as residents would need to get buses or taxis to get there. Though we all understand the need for a new surgery in Salisbury, our argument is that the currently-favoured site is not suitable. As a local resident I have seen many oil beetles there (three of the UK’s native oil beetles are extinct, and the remaining five species are on the decline[2]), among the numerous species of wildflowers, and the Red Bartsia Bee is also a resident to the site. The land surrounding the site supports breeding birds such as the curlew, lapwing, snipe, redshank, and turtle doves. This is a small, precious refuge of natural green space that is incredibly rare to find in a city – especially one undergoing concentrated housing development like Salisbury. On behalf of my fellow residents in Harvard Heights and East Harnham (both areas share boundaries to the Lime Kiln Way site), I implore Salisbury City Council and local MP John Glen to look more closely into more suitable, alternative locations, and preserve the rare habitat that we can still enjoy in Salisbury. The Lime Kiln Way site offers a sanctuary for flora and fauna to thrive in an area left largely undisturbed by human activity, and future generations will be thankful for us having protected it. Thank you for taking the time to consider this petition.

The Citadel building is of historical significance. The plans to demolish it without any notification of what will replace the site is not acceptable. Potential developers should meet and consult with the community, to discuss their wishes for the building, before any action is taken.

The Boundary Commission for England is planning to get rid of Hove, by ripping out the Hove Park area and moving it into Brighton (a new constituency called ‘Brighton North’), then abolishing the rest of Hove as a separate entity and instead merging it into Brighton – in a new constituency called ‘Brighton Central and Hove’, where Hove gets second billing. As a result, the ancient borough of Hove, as a place in its own right, will disappear from the political map forever. Some will see this as a final nail in Hove’s coffin. And surely no-one who has lived in Hove or Brighton for more than five minutes will think it makes sense. It is, as Albion saviour Dick Knight has called it, an ill-conceived plan that fails “to recognise and understand the unique fabric of the city – two towns united as a city but happily divided by their own distinct identities.” Hove is completely distinct from Brighton – a different town with its own look and feel, architecture, society and social fabric. Chopping Hove up and then making it a junior partner of Brighton brings independent Hove to an end. It destroys Hove’s traditional, natural and deeply embedded community ties and replaces them with new, artificial ties that make no sense. Hove will no longer be Hove. This not only destroys Hove but fundamentally changes the character of the whole area. The loss of Hove threatens to undermine the social fabric of this young city, to the detriment of all. And it will be devastating to the people of Hove. So, Boundary Commission, please keep your Hands off Hove.

We feel the proposed restrictions are a threat to local 'non convenience' businesses who offer leisure activities with a longer stay time than the one hour proposed limit. Our local salons, coffee shops, restaurants, clothes shops, bars and other shopping outlets fear, that the restricted parking would deter visitors from spending time using a number of facilities in the village; causing the local economy to suffer as a result. We do feel that the parking congestion in the village needs to be addressed, but do not feel that this is the answer. Please support us in our campaign to put a stop to the proposed restrictions BEFORE THE COUNCIL MEETING ON TUESDAY 8 NOVEMBER 2016, and keep Tickhill the eclectic place that visitors love to spend time in.
