30/10/2011 Pro Vision & Persimmon -
north of Brislands Lane application update
New EHDC Planning software -
click here for this application
Two
amendment plans and
one covering letter were added to the
EHDC application on 18th October 2011, showing the total's
reduction of one unit to 110, affordable units up to 40%, and the move
of proposed footpaths to avoid damage to the community soccer pitch.
Also we noted the removal of some car ports, additional trees &
landscaping, plus a 3m buffer for Wisteria and re-siting of units
adjacent to #5 Timbercroft.
F4FM regard the above revisions as
only minor & cosmetic. More important issues are being discussed with
statutory consultees still - highways, environment, etc. F4FM feels
that none of the major objections have as yet been satisfactorily
addressed, and we continue to object to this badly timed and
inappropriate application, urging for it to be refused.
There has been significant
community anger & annoyance at the Brislands Lane construction traffic
proposal, but we note this is not been included as part of the
current application. Apparently it was only provided as information a
the community exhibition. Local residents should contact both
Tony Whitty at EHDC and
Sophie Champion at HCC Highways who
are involved in a pre-application consultation with Pro Vision /
Persimmon about Brislands Lane. As & when it is included in a revised
or new application, we will encourage formal objections too at that
stage. We regard this as a totally impractical, dangerous,
diversionary and cynical access suggestion.
F4FM will continue to monitor
Pro Vision / Persimmons progress with EHDC / HCC and the lobbying
activities of their agents Nex Communications with interest.
NEW OR UPDATED OBJECTIONS
SHOULD BE SENT TO EHDC BY 4th NOVEMBER 2011

We are
preparing a F4FM statement regarding the Consultation meeting, which we
found disappointing, and highly concerning regarding the new proposal to
use Brislands Lane for construction traffic.
Fight4FourMarks, based on
our exit poll feedback from the attendees, reflects unanimous village community
views, and remains totally opposed to
this current application in its timing and much of its content.
This
consultation should have been held well before the application in
August, not over two months afterwards !
Wednesday 17th August
2011 - site north of Brislands Lane
Persimmon's
cynically timed application is now live on
EDHC's planning web site for 111 dwellings (but no detailed
documents yet !). Four Marks has not had a proper Community Consultation,
and we will be raising this with both EDHC & the Parish Council.
The
application is not on the agenda for this
evening's Parish Council meeting, so is unlikely to be discussed
formally until early September by them, with a pre-meeting public
speaking opportunity.
We will
vigorously object to this application on numerous planning regulation &
policy grounds, and urge everyone in the Four Marks Community to do
likewise.
Please send us your
views and objections to (or approval for) this application at
fight4fourmarks@yahoo.co.uk.
Also we need you to volunteer to help distribute leaflets, co-ordinate
information around your immediate neighbours and assist with raising
objection letters.

involved in objecting.

Application for 11
dwellings and one commercial office - objections closed 7th June 2011.
F4FM and Four Marks PC compared our objections and agreed the
principle to build was ok but that the types of dwellings and total
number need adjustment.
Refused at North
Planning Committee. 7-15 Blackberry Lane - highly cramped development in a backland
commercial site with narrow site access. Thanks to District Councillor
Seward and Erroll O'Farrell of Four Marks Parish Council for arguing the
case against this over-development.
Winchester Road -
speculative application for a driveway plot and a backland dwelling
refused - well done EDHC.

APPEAL UPHELD & Application
passed, using legislation designed for deserving travellers
& gypsies for a single plot.
'Reserve Site' Land
north of Brislands Lane - Persimmon Homes have been very quiet for some
months.
There are continued
stories of
developers making offers for large back gardens, and surveying
large fields. If you do decide to sell, be sure
you are getting the full value and all the "claw-back" benefits. We will
help advise you if asked. Naturally we prefer that any development is
for dwellings at prices local people can afford.
