Keep ED Suburban - SIGN THE PETITION

[Quaywe]

Cllr Richard Thomas is fighting to keep ED classed as "Suburban". Mayor Ken wants it re-classified as "Urban". The impact of this would be the ability for developers to build 5-6 story structures in ED rather than the max 2-3 stories allowed now.

There is a petition if you would like to support it: http://campaigns.libdems.org.uk/southwarkissuburban

Wouldn't mind some higher buildings if some of them where "affordable housing". However, all it would mean would be more and more tall developments going up, and more and more money for the developers! Boo Hiss :X

5 storey affordable housing seems to be springing up all over Denmark Hill Keef. Perhaps you should move this way *walks like an egyptian*

Would love to, didn't realise....... Will look in to it!!!! Oh to be a keyworker, maybe I'll hold off with that resignation letter for a little while..... ;-)

My name's already on there - I think opening up electronic forms of access and participation will do politics the world of good...

Well done EdKiwi! Signed up.

Shonky developers are sprouting up all over the place and their impact and presence is wholly unwanted

Signed up.

I only hope that I've not destroyed something else that would be beneficial. I don't feel well informed.

Have signed up as feel this is very important, however bit confused with the statement that only 2-3 story buildings would be allowed as there are already buildings taller than this in the area (eg the flats at LL end of Friern Rd). I thought the urban thing would mean buildings taller than 5-6 stories could be built and suburban up to 5-6 stories.
