We, the undersigned residents and members of the local community, are calling on the local council and planning authorities to urgently intervene regarding the ongoing, unapproved development taking place in the forested land behind the Ravenswing residential park opposite the entrance to AWE.

The location on Reading Road is Site Location

This land is currently being cleared and built on without planning permission, with the intention of installing multiple static homes (approximately 13 plots).

Construction machinery is operating from 6am until nearly midnight, causing serious disruption, noise pollution, and distress to nearby residents — many of whom are older, vulnerable, and rely on peace, safety, and stability.

In addition to the disturbance, recently, attempts were also made to illegally access nearby residential park’s water and electricity supply, causing further alarm and safety concerns.

This situation has left our community feeling unsafe, anxious, and unprotected. We urgently need intervention to stop further environmental harm, prevent unregulated development, and ensure the wellbeing of residents in local area.

----------------------------------------

We call upon the local council, planning enforcement, and environmental authorities to:

1. Immediately halt all construction and land development until proper planning permissions have been submitted, reviewed, and approved.

2. Increase local enforcement presence, including monitoring of noise, working hours, and land use activity 

3. Ensure the safety and protection of residents, particularly vulnerable and elderly individuals who are currently distressed by the situation.

----------------------------------------

This is not a petition against individuals or groups based on identity; it is about legal compliance, safety, and environmental protection.

Long construction hours violate typical acceptable noise and community disruption standards.

Unauthorised access to utilities demonstrates clear disregard for property boundaries and safety laws.

Residents feel intimidated and fearful, affecting daily quality of life and health — especially among elderly individuals who make up the majority of the immediate area.
