Bellways designs for Billet Road Contaminated Landfill - Part 3 -Consultation

Bellway's Consultations were not a discussion more a dictation. 

Local residents were shown the 'this is what we will be doing' boards. 

The Design and Access report for Site B (contaminated Landfill) details the results of the 'consultation'.

Key Concerns - local residents

1. Wildlife and biodiversity - Ignored,
End result loss of all trees and hedgerows and a whooping NEGATIVE 100% Biodiversity Net Gain aka TBL (Total Biodiversity Loss).
Yesterday Bellway submitted an amendment to REMOVE the 10% BNG requirement.

2. Community Safety/ Preservation of privacy for site neighbours/removal of proposal of vehicular route through Coral Close - Ignored

3. Site drainage

4. Affordable housing

5. Capacity of local infrastructure

Design Review - Feedback

1. Fronts and backs within Masterplan should be adjusted to relate to neighbouring Marks Gate - ignored

2. Community engagement should disrupt and enrich the Masterplan - ignored

3. Biodiversity Net Gain must be optimised where it can be delivered - ignored

4. Introduction of some height along the frontage to Billet Road could be justified to define the edge but should not extend into the Masterplan - Ignored

5. Engagement with local community to be deepened and enriched through future applications - ignored

GLA
1 Review large parking courts and set clear design principles for parking provision - ignored

Child friendly Redbridge - feedback

1. Community safety, maintenance, quiet study space, attractive planting and variety of play spaces, cater for all age groups are important local priorities.
