Goddard Avenue playing fields

John Fareham and John Abbott are given to understand that developers are rumoured to have purchased the Goddard Avenue playing fields. We do not as yet have firm confirmation of this, nor do we have a planning application to build on this land, but we thought it best to notify local residents to empower them to make representations as soon as possible. We have had no notification from the corporate centre that they intended to sell this land. Nevertheless this is a good time for local residents who share the view, expressed by many local residents when this open space was last threatened, that this land should be kept as open space to make their feelings known on that point. No formal consultation is involved in this process at this stage about this publicly owned land, but you can of course contact either of us at the postal and E-mail addresses given below and we will pass your views on to the relevant quarters. It is not too early to write to Neville Brown, Planning Services, Kingston House, Bond Street, Hull HU1 3ER and express your opinion. However, City Plan consultations are due early in the New Year.
