BAE SITE CONSULTATION FORUM

Image result for BAE site Waterlooville


I went along to The Plaza Council offices last week where the  consultation forum regarding the former BAE site was held.  There was a presentation by the developers showing their hopes for the future of the site.  One of their assurances was that 39000sq ft had been assigned for leisure facilities.  They were actively 'casting their net' to get interest.  Many in the audience expressed their scepticism that the developers were searching hard enough.  If leisure is wanted and not more retail then the residents of Waterlooville will have to fight for it.

There was a promise that the next public consultation will be held in Waterlooville.  Watch for the dates.

COMMUNITY MEETING

Business meetings every 2 months have been held in Waterlooville for the last year.  At the last meeting in September it was decided to open up the meetings to the local residents as well as businesses as it was an opportunity for the people who live in Waterlooville to find out more about what is going on...BAE site and leisure facilites;  Wellington Way; cycle paths; shops closing; improve pavillion in the Jubilee park  etc etc.  All those things people talk about.  Come along to the next meeting and ask those questions and push for answers.  For too long Waterlooville has been very quiet perhaps this is the time to push the council.  Your local ward councillors will be there as well as council officers and cabinet members.  The next meeting is on: MONDAY 27 NOVEMBER 6pm St Georges Church Hall  Tell your friends and bring them along
