Rejected petition Stop local Councils building 1050 new homes on Latton Priory in Harlow
EFDC and Harlow council have a proposal in place to build 1050 new homes on land known as Latton Priory and local residents have not been fully informed about this!
Commonside Road will end up like Church Langley as the roads for the development are all set to come into Harlow from Fern Hill Road
More details
Harlow Council will not gain any income as EFDC will be the ones to benefit from the Council Tax.
One of EFDC Counsellors who lives in Theydon Bois (Mr Philips to be precise) has managed to reduce the proposed number of houses in that area by 84% - just because that’s where he lives and don’t want his area ruined.
So, surely if it’s good enough for him – then it’s good enough for the residents of Harlow.
