Following a recent Parish Meeting attended by a large gathering of Hawkwell residents a vote was taken to force the local council to hold a “Parish Poll”
As residents, the forthcoming Poll gives us ALL the opportunity to say YES to the creation a Neighbourhood Plan which will help form the basis of future plans for our local community and carries statutory weight as part of consultations on future housing developments such as the 350 houses proposed by Taylor Wimpey, to be sited on our beautiful greenbelt between Mount Bovers Lane & Gusted Hall Lane in Hawkwell
This is not a political vote it is a Yes/No vote
“Do the you support the creation of a Neighbourhood Plan in Hawkwell Parish to help protect the village from unsustainable housing developments”
We have tremendous support so far but need all the help we can get in opposing these plans to destroy our greenbelt, ruin our wildlife, landscape and heritage
Every vote counts and your support as part of the community is vital in helping protect our village
Please, if you can, attend the polling station between:
4pm & 9pm on 13th June and vote YES
There is a wealth of preliminary work being undertaken ahead of this to fend of this potentially disastrous blot on our beautiful landscape – We are not denying the need for housing but we are fighting for housing to be located appropriately and not on our greenbelt in an area already clogged with too much traffic, local schools already oversubscribed and public services stretched to breaking point
PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN AND SHOW WHAT AN AMAZING LOCAL COMMUNITY WE HAVE
