| I was at yesterday's meeting, where the expected result ensued because money trumps everything. Every opportunity to put obstacles in the way of residents and other objectors had been used, everything skewed in favour of the CIC. Decisions had been made against all the evidence supplied by residents, emails of complaints were minimised and dismissed. The planning officer did not advise which charities, schools, businesses and police officers objected, including the nation-wide charity CPRE which ran a campaign. At yesterday's meeting,residents were not allowed to speak, including councillors. Again no transparency re what the CIC's expenses are or where the festival money goes was offered. There was no mention of the 7000 hours of free labour given in a year by the Ministry of Justice's Community Payback Scheme for painting and gardening. All objections regarding ecological damage and harm to children growing up for the next 5 years with the cumulative effect of 4 months a year of all the damaging consequences of festivals. And why has planning accepted the noise level of 88dbs when Hyde Park manages fine with 65dbs? Festivalgoers are being told to wear earplugs to prevent damage to their hearing. Why not simply have lower sound limits? The planning committee say residents are safeguarded because there are lots of conditions the CIC have to comply with. All that will happen is what's happened in the past:the conditions will be ignored, there will be no monitoring, complaints phone numbers will be overwhelmed and not answered, numbers of complaints will be misreported,etc.etc. I used to live by the park so I know the reality of living with festivals.I feel for my friends who are going to be unable to use the park or sit in their gardens, open their windows or invite friends round and will have to endure intolerable conditions for the next five years.Believe me, if you haven't lived there, you have no idea of what the reality is truly like. |
