Homes England, in conjunction with North Somerset Council, is inviting the public to comment on a new housing scheme for the Sunnyside Road and Locking Road car parks. To read more information on the proposed development, and leave your comments visit http://www.n-somerset.gov.uk/lrsrconsultation. The consultation will run from 27 June until the 11 July.

Please let us know what you think – comment on this post or email mike.bell@n-somerset.gov.uk

Mike and Robert’s immediate priorities are:
* to get good quality design – we’re not “excited” about these images so far, however much the council says they are “exciting”
* to ensure that parking is sufficient – where are the proposals to replace the lost car parking at Locking Road and Sunnyside Road?
* to see where jobs for these new residents will come from – the town centre doesn’t have an abundance of emerging employers
* and to make sure that key facilities are in place for already living here, never mind the new residents – where is our new GP surgery, children’s centre and primary school? A lot of change required!
