Cllr Jeff Stafford has informed us that Havering Council are considering selling off so called building land on Harold Hill. I have filled in blue the three areas in question and attached Jeff's comments to the council. If you would like to comment email Cllr Jeff Stafford at....
1 . Priory Road
The first problem I have with this is that you refer to it under Planning/Transportation/Access
Issues as "green chain". What does that mean?
If it means Green Belt then your proposal under Disposal Options will
not be possible. I don't think this road lends itself
to a residential development as it is so narrow and being next to "The
Priory" residential home, parking will pose a problem.
Therefore I am opposed to its disposal as a site for residential development.
However, if it was developed, access to Dagnam Park by motorbikes has always been a problem and I would like to think that a path from the road to give access to Dagnam Park would be possible for pedestrians.
Residential development on this piece of land would put extra pressure on parking for existing residents as it is already a problem. This amenity space is still used by children and as it was designed for that purpose it should stay that way. Therefore, I am opposed to it's disposal as a site for residential development.
This piece of land would be inappropriate for residential development if accessed from Dorking Rise due to parking and narrowness of the road. It should be redeveloped for the community as a "community garden" as was proposed whilst the SRB money was still around. Therefore, I am opposed to its disposal as a site for residential development.
