Campaign Update - 2nd June 2021

Firstly a huge thank you to those who have donated to the fund so far, this is an encouraging start. However more funding will be required in preparation for stage 2 of the planning process, therefore if you can donate please do.

 

This week a meeting took place with a Planning Consultant, discussing what will be required and legislation of planning, to which we await the proposed plan and final costs. The Planning Consultant will help guide us through the planning process. We also need funds to buy expert advice and evidence that we will need to support our arguments against this development, particularly on traffic and environmental issues. Without detailed and evidenced argument we cannot hope to put forward the best possible case against this development. So please, please donate. If every home in the Parish donated £20, we will reach the target sum we need. 

 

As the campaign moves forward, the aim is to raise awareness. You may have already spotted the new banners around the village. In the next few weeks posters and flyers will be produced and distributed.

We are pleased to announce that we now  have two chair people, Fiona MacCallum and Peter Spours, Tim Slatford stepped down as chairperson this week due to an increase in work commitments, however he will continue to be a member of the group and we thank him for all he has done.
