Cut and Pasted from the Brentford TW8 forum. Cannot see it on the Ealing version but it is an Ealing issue, especially as the area in question will affect teh Ealing /Acton part of the park first. It's possible that this could be the beginning of the end of the park as a public park. Developers are salivating over the potential of grabbing slices of the place and it could become an exclusive facility for the wealthy. Topic: Gunnersbury Park in danger again. Forum Home Posted by: K Daniels Date/Time: 05/04/13 10:11:00 Hello All, You may already have heard that the Councils have appointed a firm of developers to turn the Small Mansion into an extension of an Ealing private girls' school. If this goes ahead, the public will be barred access to a large chunk of the Park (in contravention of the legal covenant) as well as suffer increased traffic, noise, pollution, etc. There is a meeting of the Gunnersbury Park Joint Advisory Board on Friday 19 April at 6.30 in the Small Mansion. I don't know what's on the agenda, but do try to come along to find out more and express your views. Let's have a good turnout and try to nip this in the bud, or, once a precedent is established, the rest of the Park will follow suit. every blade of grass belongs to the public. Gunnersbury is an amazing park, lets try & keep it that way. Gunnersbury is being regenerated, take a keep @ the official you-tube channel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iLFCh1HAfQ Best wishes. PLEASE ATTEND THIS MEETING & SHOW YOUR SUPPORT TO KEEP THIS PARK IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN ! APRIL 19TH @ 6.30PM AS ABOVE. |
