Flixton Green Belt

We attended the public meeting kindly hosted by Flixton Urmston Davyhulme Future Planning Group and presented by Urban Imprint (independent planners) on Wednesday 23rd August at the John Alker Club. The findings in the report cemented and legitimised some of the issues we knew already about the proposal to include the site at WG4 (William Wroe) as part of Trafford Borough Councils contribution to the GMSF (Greater Manchester Spatial Framework) and many more we did not. For example it would appear that Trafford's allocation of dwellings appears to be 1500 more than quoted. This alone would appear to negate the requirement for 750 homes proposed for the WG4 site even before we’ve started to take apart other factors including sustainability, impacts on health and well being plus the damage to wildlife and nature. A more in depth analysis will be done when we have had time to digest the full report.

G H Carnall Consultation Drop in Events a Success

Image
May saw two events arranged by Trafford Council and ourselves for the community to finally have their say on the future of this much loved, much used Leisure Centre and Social Hub. This has followed two and a half years of uncertainty surrounding the centre which has been fuelled with a long list of untruths and stories pedalled by people that want the centre shut because of the land it occupies, regardless of it's unquestioned value to the community and it's undoubted potential to pay for itself when run properly by those very people, had they cared about it's future security and the impact it would have on the community if it did. The events were held on May 21st at GHC and 30th May at Urmston  Library. Both events were attended by Council Leader Andrew Western and virtually all of our local elected representatives. Here are a few pictures from the events If you were unable to attend any of the events but want a say in the future of th
