I can tell you that emails opposing there INFILL developments across the borough are inconsiderate and not justified Esoecially when you weight up the problems that will arise from them going ahead. <br /><br />Brent Council are being tight lipped about it all and choosing not to engage with clear responses to all emails sent by residents and their representatives They have been passing the buck onto another member of staff in the council IRS the samr with some councillors responding with generic emails <br /><br />Iti s simply unacceptable for residents all over the borough to stand down . It's not that we don't want families in temporary accommodation to get more secure and permanent housing . After all many of us waited for years before we got permanent housing so we do accept their is a shortage of permanent housing in the borough and their always has been <br /><br />The reason this has got worse is because or private developers investing all over Brent.<br /><br />I feel that Brent Council have actually let the families in temporary accommodation down by selling off the land to Developers. Not considering the housing crisis in the borough and they are now trying to cover up their recklessness on our local communities.<br /><br />The council is not acknowledging any single aspect of the concerns tenants in all the INFILL developments have put forward. The concerns raised must be discussed amongst the relevant teams at Brent Council but they keep saying its only in the initial stages .<br /><br /> The council need to be transparent in their commitment to provide affordable housing and all new developments in the borough should be developed solely for that purpose moving forward .<br /><br /> I think one if the areas in particular they should not sell any more land to Developers is i already very developed parts of Brent and especially wembley because there is more than enough unaffordable housing here already and getting worse .<br /><br />Surely Brent Council should talk about all these issues raised by residents everywhere in Brent at this initial stage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-2089059858990307842022-07-17T15:22:52.304+01:002022-07-17T15:22:52.304+01:00Hello Martin the email address is coming back as f...Hello Martin the email address is coming back as failed to deliver Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-57796492091913250162022-07-16T09:53:13.373+01:002022-07-16T09:53:13.373+01:00Unfortunately Butt and his Cabinet won't liste...Unfortunately Butt and his Cabinet won't listen, they've proved that over and over.<br /><br />The Planning Committee are besotted with building as can be heard at the beginning of every Planning meeting when Cllr. Kelcher says there is a national shortage of housing, the meaning is obvious, the Committee will support any developments regardless. More boxes in Brent then?

I have given up spending hours on the phone to Brent Council to complain about everything that has been raised concerning fly tippers, parking, lighting, rats, and especially security. Being elderly, I have been mugged right outside my block, harassed by teenage school kids who use Newland Court as a cut through or others who come here just to drink and take drugs shouting or talking loud till past midnightAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-47442356667513865332022-07-15T15:44:36.808+01:002022-07-15T15:44:36.808+01:00There are 60 flats at Newland Court.
