The local authority is blaming the government targets for new homes in Medway and is destroying our countryside and our way of life. The local authority is also ignoring petition not raised through this system
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This is a matter for Medway Council, not the UK Government or Parliament.
Further, the Government's Housing Infrastructure Fund was specifically created to support the building of the infrastructure needed to support the building of new houses, potentially including roads, sewage and more: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/625528/DCLG_Introduction_to_Housing_Infrastructure_WEB.pdf. It is therefore not clear what else you want the UK Government to do.
You could start a petition calling for the Government to ban any development on green belt land if that is something you'd like to happen.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
