The utmost transparency is needed in the irreversible step that would be the loss of the publicly funded former library building to commercial development should Andrew Gillick's latest plans receive planning permission. People are entitled to know the details of what they're supporting. <br /><br />The 400 template letters should be treated as a petition - signatories are agreeing to what's been put to them rather than responding directly and individually to the details of the planning application. For the record - more than 1,200 signed the petition opposing Andrew Gillick's original change-of-use application, so 400 in support of his current plans is barely one-third of that figure. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-2548362940024889452014-05-08T13:48:13.995+01:002014-05-08T13:48:13.995+01:00Fully agreed

She could easily undo the current ACAVA agreement, but she chooses to do nothing and not listen to the local people. Sudbury residents do not need and want artist studios as proposed by ACAVA.

It is responsible for the loss of the publicly funded library building. It should then rent it back to FKRL at a peppercorn rent. Cllr Mashari committed to doing the same with the Preston Library building when speaking at last night's hustings called by the Friends group - like all councillors, she's currently touting for votes for the 22 May local election, and as someone above says: 'Talk is cheap before elections'. It's Cllr Mashari's Labour Party that closed KRL and the other five libraries. It's doubtful that the Civic Centre mega-library will be able to cope with the increase in users that the closures and new residential units is already creating. Big isn't necessarily better - and is certainly an inadequate measure of social provision.
