| .... on all manner of local issues. One bing that after 2 months of works local residents around Lammas Park have still not received any kind of proper information about the works in the park. The councillor to refer to is according to LBE one Ms Costigan. The same one standing for election as an MP. Given there are no flood issues in the area and only a few properties with flooding issues beside Lammas park which has been ongoing since the 1970s and relates to shallow sewers it transpires that none of these residents have had any communication or surveys or contact from Thames Water, The environment agency or London Borough of Ealing. None can give any explanation or produce any form of risk assessment data to those residences most likely to be affected - those around the park. There is no risk assessment for the works impact either. No assessment of the impact of stagnant water and polluted water from animal faces right next to a children's playground and a toddler centre. Nothing on the propagation of biting insects like Horseflies now increasingly common in the locality. or the risk of mosquito and malarial varieties which are more likely given climate change and found already in some wetlands further north than here. No risk assessment on the shifting of 1000s of tones of earth and the risk to subsidence and ground water displacement to properties ( which has already affected some on the north east side ). The loss of 90 to 110 year old mature tree varieties. The buck is being passed all round and most are ducking the issue. Key to that is the one who believes she is a fit an proper candidate to represent residents interests in such matters. The fact there is a complete wall of silence and a major project has been rushed through with nothing other than a glossy PR notice with a 35 year future illustration and no actual specific data and fact is very alarming. The closest off record disclosure is the real reason is to allow larger high rise developments to be enables within a 1 mile radius of Lammas Park. So will LBE and Co. come clean and be more open? Will Ms.Costigan MP be representing those who suffer the fallout of the shortcomings? Will council officers in charge actually be named? Hightly unlikely. |
