Representation Summary:

There is little evidence or assurances of any commitment to honour the pledge to protecte our ancient woodlands and wilife in this town.If this council truly intends to preserve the ancient woodlands here in Hollington they will WITHDRAW the Robsack "A" site from the proposed development sites.It is unanimously agreed that to build so close to woodlands results in the degradation and erosion of woodlands and the wildlife.There is evidence that this piece of land was brought forward as a development site on flawed, incomplete evidence.

Representation Summary:

I object because it is patently clear that this dedication to protecting our ancient woodland is meaningless when one considers the proposals to build multi storey flats on the site at Robsack "A".A document released this week by the Press Association categorically states that the UK wildlife is in serious trouble with almost 2000 species of birds, animals, insects and plants in serious decline.This is due among other issues to a decline in suitable habitats.This council needs to listen to these ecologists and heed this serious warning.Build, but do not build on important habitats.
