NO! to 50-60 houses at St Ives Town Football Club
We support Huntingdonshire District Council's decision to refuse the application for 50-60 homes on the site of the football club. Furthermore, we object to the football club formally appealing this decision against the wishes of the local community.
Why is this important?
There are serious issues with traffic & parking along Westwood Road. An increase in traffic on this residential road due to this development will exacerbate these problems and endanger pedestrians and cyclists - particularly pupils of St Ivo School.
Drainage systems are already at full capacity and flooding is an issue. The proposed plans would increase the risk of flooding and raw sewage discharge onto public footpaths and into private gardens.
50 houses crammed onto the site is not in-keeping with the character of the existing area.
There have been no alternative options explored for the use of the land, eg. the expansion of St Ivo School.
