I would like to see the whole of Ore Valley become a Country Park, properly maintained by the Council. The only way that the project could be achieved would be by the Council purchasing the remainder of the land. I presume that it still owns the frontage from Church Street to the stream, as this was cleared under stream clearance in the 1960s. currently it is an unofficial tip for locals to dispose of their unwanted rubbish ie. old cars, tyres, bedsteads, cookers, hardcore etc.

I notice you have included part of the land, which already had planning permission, fronting Victoria Avenue. In my opinion the whole of the valley should be included right up to Victoria Avenue.

Why did you allow the owner to fill in the Ore Valley stream? This now causes flooding across my property, the stream does not follow its original course.

Why have you allowed footpath signs to be erected where there are no footpaths? eg. there has never been a footpath through the bottome of the valley, many years ago it was used as allotments.

The site is so mountainous I do not believe a private contractor would be interested in developing it, due to the large area of land that would be unuseable.

Many years ago Councillor Street suggested using an area adjacent to Victoria Avenue as a managed car park, for the benefit of the people using Ore Village. I believe this would be an extremely sensible idea and could incorporated into a future scheme for the valley.
