1st-Off to Parliament with Dr Rebecca Driver for a sub-committee to tell MPs that the NPPF is being interpreted too heavily in favour of development against many good and rightful interests. The case of Headcorn was made plain. What was clear many others have the same problems:no confirmed Local Plan, no 5 year land supply, and too many developers taking advantage with blinkered and urgent plans.
More work to follow on this!
And after following up on the meeting in Parliament I have a 3rd Sept Joint Transport Board/JTB meeting, purely as attendee to see the "pitch one needs to make" when presenting a petition. In a few months time I hope to present a petition to them about the excessive speeding and overtaking in Headcorn, especially on Maidstone Rd and Millbank. As I am a Speedwatcher I see it too often.
Before I go on holiday I have asked, with Richard, for a meeting with Planners and Developers of the Hazelpits Farm proposal for when I am back. I dont know how much weight I can bring, but I MUST TRY to at the very least modify such blinkered proposals and address many concerns.
After JTB I go on holiday.
Then I will return to attend the Tory Conference and tell them about the mess that is Local Planning and how it emerges in places like Headcorn.
I will update in 3-4 weeks now.
