Responses to Development Briefs Phase 3B: Issues and Options Consultation
Response from Mr Scott Thornley, Holme Parish Council
1. Mr Scott Thornley, Holme Parish Council   :   26 Jul 2017 11:07:00
Have we identified the right key issues for this site? Are there any we have missed? What key aspects would you like to see delivered on the site? What do you value?
Please find below the response from Holme Parish Council;

" The part of the document referring to Holme reflects the current needs of our community. However, the council would like to emphasise the need for 25% of the land allocated for the East of Milnthorpe Road development to be retained for recreational use. This land would need to be suitable for a variety of recreational activities and therefore not 'boggy'. The village is in need of suitable recreational land so the growing population has an area to meet and take part in various activities. Due to the nature of Holme, there are few safe areas for children and adults to exercise safely. Holme should retain and improve upon its community spirit and without a suitable area, a sense of community could be further weakened."

Kind regards,

Allison Watts
Clerk to Holme Parish Council
