  • Deano's good fight begins!!!!!

    Hi all!

    Well following the "bolt out of the blue!" Just thought a little thread as to what will go on is appropriate!

    Meeting had, was 22 plot holders in company, I have got a copy of all leaked documentation which I will now begin to scrutinise, no council presence, but a meeting of their proposals as been scheduled at the Town Hall on Wednesday at 6pm, really hoping to get there!

    Their initial letter (I dear note post for legal reasons) Initially states four reasons:

    1 The site is regually subject to vandalism and break-in's!

    Agreed! But ain't all others! You "The Council" sent out letters over five years ago (Copy still in hand) that you were going to put a perimeter paling fence up an never did!
    Failing on the "Landlords part"

    2 There is an extensive Knotweed infestation which is invasive and despite a 5 year programme to eradicate, the weed continues to grow on 40% of the site with a loss of 17 plots.

    Absolute rubbish! there were 7 plots, and looking of late their intensive, and it wasn't! means of getting it under control as worked to a certain extent! now probably down to 3 maybe 4!
    Failing on the "Landlords part"

    3 Fly-tipping regularly takes place at the top end of the site.

    Yet again agree! But back to the fencing! If in place wouldn't happen!
    Failing on the "Landlords part"

    4 Local residents with properties overlooking the site have complained it is unsightly and attracts anti-social behaviour.

    Again utter rubbish! The only people overlooking are the ones on the main road facing (See my plot photo's) they ain't seeing much
    Back to fencing!
    Failing on the "Landlords part"

    Now all that said, and reading between the lines, (Got a copy of a more detailed report) Which details a lot of other sites across the region, what if's n wherefores, how much money spent where etc

    But there is a plan which would suit me down to the ground!

    I'll put up a fight with these "Guy's" for now! see what happens!

    Looks like they are just looking for excuses & it appears one remedy would solve the lot.

        BM! It's Money based!
        The whole plot is huge! It would go for a fortune to the right "Property Developer"

        Google map "Queens Road" Bradford, you'll see!

              Sorry I've missed what the "bolt out of the blue" was. Presumably on another thread.

                  Are you fighting for yourself or for others Deano?

                    Gunna fight for us all BM!

                    But Reading between, they have to relocate, and award compensation etc, early days yet n still getting my head around it as to what our legalities are, but following your link! from yesterday! They have to spend the money they gain in providing new plots, and funnily enough, my local parish this last year have or are converting a local field to allotments! and their name is mentioned in the detailed report!

                      I wonder how much it will cost to relocate & compensate as opposed to putting up a security fence. It doesn't smell good does it?....

                        As I said at the meeting today! If their mind is set! it will happen! We just have to make it as uncomfortable and embarrassing as possible!

                        I've no problem in starting again, as long as given a decent site, which they will have to do!
                        As said! early days!

                        Called a meeting next Sunday following the outcome on Wednesday! All "Hearsay" at the minute till then!

                          Yup, good luck Deano, all you can do is go in prepared with the element of surprise.

                            Are you being faced with site closure?
