OUR CONCERNS
Redevelopment in the
High Street is taking Crowthorne away from a village atmosphere towards a
more urban feel. Just look at Bracknell
Town Centre to get an
idea of what it could like. For these reasons we need to keep vigilant
about future planning applications
Do you realise the
number of apartments built, under construction or planned are over 300?
With the effects of the Monetary Crisis hitting all building project a
large number of these are either empty or standing half competed!
Our sylvan Village! We are joining in with the
Woodland Trust in compiling a list of all the veteran and notable trees in
and around the village so that they can be protected and put on a
national register
Parking/Public
Transport. We are concerned at the loss of
public parking spaces and the poor public transport system.
School places. Bringing high density development
into our community is bound to have an adverse impact on parents being able
to get their children into the school of their choice, at any age.
Doctors. Although we have had 2 surgeries for some years now,
there is still a considerable waiting period to get to see a doctor,
imagine how continuous high density development will impact on an already
stretched service, not to mention the parking at those surgeries!
Disturbances/Police. There are a number of areas in the village that have
trouble with youths, recently a new Neighbourhood Action Group has been formed
in Crowthorne to handle liaison with the police and local authorities a
propos these matters.(click here for more details))
