The post war infrastructure was built for a low level city and cannot withstand this intense pressures these built would place on it.","additional_details":"Plymouth is one of the last low level city’s in the UK. Many of the new towns, and cities destroyed by the Luftwaffe during the post war period during the 20th century used Abercrombie and Lord Astors vision of a new low level spacious city as the premise for their designs. These plans will alter the city centre forever and it will lose this historic context. Situated on a plateau of land where parts are below sea level the  infrastructure and facilities was not built for such intense housing.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":6,"created_at":"2025-09-28T08:19:44.330Z","updated_at":"2025-10-20T13:37:30.726Z","rejected_at":"2025-10-20T13:30:49.944Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2025-09-29T08:19:30.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"local","details":"We can’t accept petitions that call for action at a local level.\r\n\r\nYou could ask your MP to take action on your concerns about this issue, including by asking them to present a public (paper) petition about this.\r\n\r\nYou can find contact details for your local MP here: https://members.parliament.uk/FindYourMP\r\n\r\nAnd you can find out how to ask your MP to present a public (paper) petition here: https://www.parliament.uk/get-involved/sign-a-petition/paper-petitions/\r\n\r\nYou could also raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you.
