Shaw and Crompton Green belt under threat – additional meeting 3pm-7pm, 15 Dec 16

imagesFurther to our recent discussions and demands by local Liberal Democrat Councillors an additional meeting about the Greater Manchester Spacial Framework has now been organised.

A drop-in meeting between 3.00pm – 7.00pm on 15th December 2016 at the Shaw Lifelong Learning Centre, High Street, Shaw OL2 8TB.

We have been assured this will be better organised and staffed than the last drop in session and the planners were very clear this was their preferred format rather than a traditional public meeting.  We had asked for both it this was refused.

Hopefully this should provide residents with:

  • One-to-one meetings on the day with Officers able to answer their varied questions.
  • The offer of a follow-up one-to-one meetings of a longer variety if requested / necessary for residents.

I would urge all that can to attend to find out what is proposed for vast tracks of our Green Belt.

    Thanks Howard.

    This looks like an incredibly amateur attempt to fill in all the open space between Oldham-Shaw-Milnrow-Rochdale-Royton-Slattocks with neither rhyme nor reason applied.

    By all accounts, the last session at the Lifelong Learning Centre was an equally amateur affair.

    So much for public consultation.

    Let’s hope for some straight talking, and a lack of weasel words at this new session.
