Object Planning Permission for a Children's Home at 2 Wood Walk, Royston, Barnsley S714FH
The Issue
This will cause major disruption to a very peaceful neighbourhood. The proposed children's home in Royston, Barnsley, is set to be located in an area known for its tranquility and close-knit community. We are concerned about the potential increase in traffic, noise, and overall disruption that such a facility might bring. While we understand the need for children's homes, placing one in our quiet residential area is not appropriate and could negatively impact the quality of life for current residents. Planning applications have been rejected twice and the non local business owners repeatedly attempt to push it through for monetary gain only. Barnsley council have previously aired concerns about resources being pushed in this area and bringing non local children just adds to that constraint. A home such as this does not provide stability to children like foster care can as it effectively ‘changes parents’ every 2 days. Please sign this petition to urge local authorities to reject the planning permission for this project and consider alternative locations that would be more suitable.
