I object to a vote being taken at the end of July to put the master plan for the brewery site on a statutory basis before any proper archaeological survey. This is completely putting the cart before the horse.
The Revisioning document of the 30th March stated that the proposed variation to the city and environmental plan would not commence until the masterplan had been finalised and approved by the by the elected councillors.
Objections to the variations Section 3 Dev. Acts 200/2014
-
The council do not own the Brewery site. The final sign off has not taken place so any vote is completely premature
-
The linear park should be at least 30 meters wide and should take into account the wildlife habitat. The Linear Park should remain behind the Poplar trees to protect wildlife in the area.
-
The May Fair and Brewhouse must be demolished so that the park can run along by the old city wall and around the Abbey.
-
St. Francis Abbey should be the centre of this development. The Brew house must be demolished and a complete archaeological survey conducted.
-
Urban Design? What happened to the Medieval Streetscape removed from the Master plan?
-
Parking should be clearly specified.
-
Housing is very important, but some of the area owned by the council should be a micro brewery. The houses should be accessed from Green St. / Vicar St. Not The CAS
-
No through road from the CAS to Bateman Quay causing further traffic chaos.
-
Late inclusion of Market Yard and a Multi-Story car park.
The new County Manager should have adequate time to study the master plan. I have attended all the consultations and every table said
1. Demolish the Mayfair and Brewhouse
2 No Through Road from the CAS.
3. Complete Archaeological survey must be carried out prior to any plans.
We are looking at a repeat of the CAS disaster and possibly another Wood Quay! Are you listening?
