REFUSE the planning application and REMOVE the Matlock Wolds from the Local Plan
The Issue
Refuse the Wolds application and Remove it from the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan
Developers want to put over 430 houses and a fast food outlet on the Matlock Wolds.
The Wolds is 23.6 hectares (or 58.3 acres) of locally valued, historic, greenfield landscape high above the small town of Matlock. It's a natural flood defence and an important wildlife habitat.
Please help us to get this application refused and remove this precious place from the Derbyshire Dales Local Plan. Help us to protect it for future generations.
By signing this petition you are objecting to planning application 18/01242/EIA and requesting that your objection is taken into consideration by Derbyshire Dales District Council.
We’ve been fighting for over a decade to protect this special place from unsustainable and unnecessary development.
The issues with developing the Matlock Wolds are very serious, which is why this controversial planning application is still on the table nearly five years after being submitted!
Please help us to save this much loved place! Thank you for your support.
