PUBLIC MEETING AT 7:00 PM ON FRIDAY 21 MARCH 2014
GAWBER COMMUNITY CENTRE, CHURCH STREET, GAWBER
Protecting YOUR Green Belt
Pogmoor – Gawber – Redbrook – Barugh Green – Higham
Barnsley MBC is considering major plans for Urban Developments around Barnsley.
Formal consultation will not start until June, but overleaf is an indication of the
current proposals for YOUR area.
Potential developers are actively pursuing these proposals BUT local residents’
views & concerns are currently being ignored.
If these plans are allowed to proceed there will be the following adverse effects: –
Loss of valuable agricultural land
Loss of recreational access to the countryside
Adverse effects on wildlife
Loss of village character (especially Barugh Green & Higham) in the growth of
Barnsley’s urban sprawl
Significant noise and environmental pollution during years of construction and
after the works are completed
Flood risk
Invasion of privacy and devaluation of existing property values
Increased pressure on local roads during and after construction
Increased pressure on local infrastructure – Schools, Medical, Shops etc.
These are just some of our concerns – we need as many residents as possible to
help fight badly thought out proposals.
Remember – once it’s gone, it’s gone forever. Join us on the 21st to find out
more about the issues and how you can help protect your environment.
