A Garrison Resident who Can’t Write to Wokingham Borough Council

Here is a picture snapped earlier today of a Garrison resident who has no voice, and cannot write and comment on Wokingham Borough Council’s plan to bulldoze over green fields at Arborfield Garrison. The picture was taken from Tyler Drive, looking into land that under the plans would disappear under houses along with many more acres of land to the south of the garrison. As residents will tell you, deer are quite a common sight crossing these fields currently – they won’t be when Wokingham Borough Council and their developers are finished with the area.

Also living around the area are badgers – with previous developments having had to take special account of their presence. You can also often see bats flying around the area at dusk.

Time is fast running out on what is expected to be the final consultation on the plans. With the council ruling out any extension to the consultation period the deadline for interested parties to submit their comments is next week, on the 27th July. You can find details of the council plans and details of how to submit comments on our recent post about the re-consultation.

Make your voice heard, before it is too late.
