Petition Against Housing Development

Residents living in Bowling Green Road Thatcham, have collected signatures for a petition against a 90 house development north of the garden centre, with a single road access off Tull Way.

The petition refers to several aspects including; 
  • The land that the developer wants to build on has a designation of Important Open Space,
  • Thatcham already has a five year supply of housing development
  • There will be more pressure on local doctors, dentists and schools.
  • The housing development will also blight views across the open agricultural land to the distant rolling hills and farmland.
I will be presenting the petition on behalf of the residents to the Executive meeting on Thursday 14 June.

    couple this with the 300 possible houses at hatchgate farm and ?? houses on siegecross which are now in consultation...everyones primary concern is that Thatcham is growing too big for its boots and cannot accomodate any more housing until its infrastructure increases too.
