Providing that the council work to get what they need from the 106 agreements and any further cash they can get to help local amenities then I don't see why halting the build of 190 new homes is a problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38889077.post-7739322698296424112016-07-18T19:01:15.671+01:002016-07-18T19:01:15.671+01:00Sorry !! the development WILL be seen by plenty o...Sorry !! the development WILL be seen by plenty of residents living on Well House Drive and the 6 Cul-de-sacs off it.

Apparently a new infant/junior school is going to be built in the next few years. However, if more large developments are pushed through, I doubt the new school will be big enough to cater to all the children in the village and we'll still have the same problems. Also, there's no high school in the village and I believe the local high schools are struggling to cope.<br />The public transportation service isn't ideal and the proposed changes to the service are probably going to make it worse.<br />Penyffordd has no health centre and you can't get an appointment at the local doctors' surgeries without waiting weeks (despite the new surgeries at Buckley and Hope). <br />The village Spar is small and the Post Office is closing (as far as I know). <br />The village is losing its green spaces little by little. The land off Chester Road is home to owls, bats, birds, etc, a great many of whom may lose their habitats when most of the hedges and some of the trees get removed.<br />I could go on and on...<br />Let's ask ourselves the following questions:<br />Would the new development bring in enough cash to improve all of the facilities fast?<br />Can money solve all of the problems the village is facing?<br />Have the housing developments that have been built in the village in the last few years resulted in an improvement in facilities or have facilities got worse?<br />Would "wealthy" people want to come and live in a village that seems to be going downhill fast?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
