Everyone,

Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council are holding their presentation of the proposed 'Local Development Framework plan' this Thursday 19th February at Groby Community College, split into two sessions 6.30 -7.00pm 8.00-9.00pm.

As of this afternoon it was confirmed that out of the 350 spaces available at each of the two sessions, only 10% (TEN PERCENT!) of the spaces have been booked by the residents of Groby that will be affected by the proposals.

I personally fear that residents of Groby (you) may now believe that with the 'Anstey Lane' being put forward as a 'residential traveller site' instead of the original 'Sacheverall Way & Leicester Road' site(s), that the problem will be far away enough not to impact on our village, and have probably resided to the fact that it will happen anyway.

The reality is this:

* Groby has 3 (three) sites indentified in the LDF plan (Anstey Lane, Sacheverall Way and Leicester Road).
* Anstey Lane (the current proposed 5 pitch site) may be rejected by Goverment due to unsuitability for a variety of reasons (no footpaths for children to go to school, crossing A50 into Groby, no services etc etc). The original Leicester Road site would then be the default 'preferred option'.
* The new 'Transit site' in Hinckley (Lime Kilns) which replaced the original 'Sacheverall Way' may also be deemed unsuitable due to location and topographical issues etc. Then the 'Sacheverall Way' site would be the default preferred option again.
* 109 new houses planned - can Groby really sustain these with our full school and overstreched resources? The answer is no.

From the initial reaction to the leaked plans in November and the great response for the people of Groby, nothing has changed with regard to what is being forced upon us by HBBC. In all reality, our position is now worst with one more site (Anstey Lane) to defend.

I urge anyone that remotely opposes these plans to attend Thursdays meeting to show your support for the people Groby, and to help voice the strongest objection possible to Hinckley & Bosworth Borough Council.

Without delay please email your name and time you wish to attend to ldf@hinckley-bosworth.gov.uk or 01455 238141 to guarantee your place at Thursday meetings.

Remeber your voice counts, and you cannot leave this issue for others to deal with alone.

Kind Regards,

Jamie (Admin)
