Give ya nephew some more easter egg.

looks like there has been a good response today from the leaflets yesterday.

He's already eaten 2 of mine, he'll end up my size soon!

he's a lil scamp, sometimes makes me cringe, once asked if Sam Obst helps Santa cuz he talks funny

Indeed, well done to all 48 of those who took up the time to write in. We have closed the gap now but are still 7 behind.

Just made my comments in support of the development; surprisingly easy to register and log in etc - most unlike WMDC!

Have just posted my support on the council site, onwards and upwards !

here is a beaut I heard, it may turn out that the residents that live on the Newmarket lane may have changed their boundaries to their properties, not seen the houses but one is said to have horses and stables,

if this is found to be true no doubt why they are complaining, may open up a right can of worms,

if I was York court I would be looking into this now

Done mine .... better late than never!

A large number of objections in today and a small number of supporting letters. Had to laugh at some of the objections. Many believe that this is a Wakefield Council development and go on to slam the council and their 'hair brained' schemes! Would've thought that more then 74 people would have written in as a result of the 1000 leaflets that were handed out last Friday.

at least we got the 74

Looks like the scaremongers have had an impact. What's the next key date Khlav?

not sure but wasn't TRB presenting the 15K petition this week ?
and as far as impact we will have to wait and see, like I posted earlier it may catch a few out with boundary lines

drive down the lane, couple of photos and a call to the planning dept???

In the words of Kevin Keegan "I would love it" if this was found to be the case.

By this i take it you mean they have adjusted the boundaries and are using land belonging to york court without permission?

Where were the 15k when they had chance to make comment to the planning department. It just goes to show anybody can sign a bit of paper put in front of them buy a friend or relative, but when it comes to people really caring or making an effort themselves people cant be bothered. This also stands for the 1000s of people who could get jobs, strange they did not want to support the project.

Can I just what your problem is with this development?

Just been reading the last few comments added to the planning site and you have to laugh!

There is a guy who lives on Aberford Road who has written to object and says that "there is a glut of old pit sites around the area so why couldn't the development be built on one of those rather than on green belt"





- he suggests maybe the old Prince of Wales Colliery site in Pontefract



Then there is the petition from someone that I actually know who is 'a good few slices short of a loaf' claiming that there will be thousands of deaths due to the fumes and traffic accidents - at least I think that is what it says as it is almost impossible to read and make any sense of. Also says that it should it should be situated near a motorway where lorries can get to the site easily



I don't think Yorkcourt shouldn't have too much difficulty in addressing those problems!!

Errr, other than the obvious location issue, they are planning to build on the old Price of Wales site! Have been for quite a while and they got outline planning a few months ago IIRC.

The other comments re choosing a site closer to the motorway proves that some people have not even bothered to look at the 'Red Alert' closely, never mind the actual application online!

This person only lives at Bottomboat

... and lived there when the pit was in full flow!!!

reply from mr calvert to the issue:-

Thank you for taking the time to write to me.

I am totally in favour of the Wildcat's relocating to that site. What I am not happy about, and this is on the record too, is with Yorkcourt's decision to also site a huge netwoork of distribution plants on the site.

There are people living on Newmarket Lane who are rightly very worried about the impact of large HGVs accessing the site from the small road near their homes.

Unfortunately I have had no contact with Yorkcourt to discuss this with them. I do know, however, that my collegues are united in being disappointed at this lack of consultation with elected and prospective parliamentary candidates.

I hope that answers your question satisfactorily. If you would like to meet and discuss this in person please do get in touch with my office on 01924 290404.

Regards,
Antony

This reply is poor and it has left himself wide open.

1. He has obviouly only listened to the garbage spouted by the Newmarket Lane mob. He has not bothered to check out the plans himself otherwise he would have seen a new road is being built to by pass those houses, thus leaving them in a quiet cul de sac.

2. Yorkcourt have done what they have to do and more regarding consultation. Is he expecting yorkcourt to come to him or is he too idle to get off his backside and ask them about his concerns and find out the true facts.

Will you let me have his address I would like to write to him myself

Well thats not going to happen in reality. The HGV's will access the site from a newly created road with the existing Newmarket Lane becoming an offshoot of this road. No HGV's will use the existing road.
