Cllr Bernard McGuin - Working with Lepton & Fenay Bridge Residents

Dear Local Residents,

Thanks again for all signing the "Save Lepton & Fenay Bridge from Development" petition. We have now gathered 592 signatures!

As your Almondbury Ward Councillor, I am up for Re-Election on Thursday May 6th. I hope I can count on your support, so I continue to campaign for you and local residents who are against Kirklees Labour Council allowing 851 houses to be built in Lepton & Fenay Bridge.

UPDATED APPLICATION FOR DEVELOPMENT PENISTONE ROAD/ROWLEY LANE. We need to study the access and design statement as well as the heritage statement as that has been amended.
A new consultation has now commenced and anyone can make a comment and deadline to do so is 2nd April. Please view the application at https://www.kirklees.gov.uk/beta/planning-applications/search-for-planning-applications/detail.aspx?id=2020/92307

Listening to local residents I agree with you that it is wrong to build 800 plus houses on greenspaces near Rowley Lane. Penistone Road has had a few bad accidents in recent times. Brownfield sites should come first, some areas have problems with drainage in the area and could lead to pressure on local services e.g. Lepton Schools/King James School, health services etc.

Please share the petition with your friends through social media, email etc if you have not already done so, we are only 8 signatures short of an amazing 600! change.org/p/save-lepton-fenay-bridge-from-development

I continue to campaign to save Lepton & Fenay Bridge Greenspaces with local residents, Lepton Vision Group, via leaflets, Facebook, emails, phones, this petition & Huddersfield Examiner. I continue to work with Lepton Ward Cllrs Bob Smith & James Spivey.

P.S As always feel free to contact me about this or any other local issue.

Thanks
