News / Wed 15th Aug 2018 at 08:33am
PLANS for new homes near Bush Fair are set to go before the Harlow Council Planning Committee.
Bushey Croft is on Tawneys Road, opposite William Martin school.
The application by the Harlow Council Regeneration Team is for: Development of 16 No. Affordable Homes Comprising 6 No. Two Bedroom and 10 No. Three Bedroom Houses on Land Between Bushey Croft and Rushes Mead.
The meeting is set to be held at 7.30pm on Wednesday August 22nd at the Civic Offices, The Water Gardens, Harlow.
There has been a number of objections and a petition regarding this site.
Full details can be found here.

Probably because this is the first anyone has heard of it.
The report here is awaiting correction by the editor. There was a public exhibition held in respect of this site and it was already clear that almost all the residents who made a comment were against the proposals. A planning application was subsequently made, with very little change made to the original proposal. In response, the Council have had two petitions sent to it containing 170 names objecting to the proposal and letters from 17 residents, 16 of which are objecting. The loss of this play space marks an important point in Harlow's history, the first of many such spaces, designed as part of Harlow's heritage, which Harlow Council, and in particular the Labour Party, want to see destroyed for good. The Harlow Alliance Party have been campaigning on this issue since it was formed in January. We intend to hold a demonstration against these proposals at 7.00pm at the Civic Offices on the 22 August. Come and join us! Further information is on our website harlowallianceparty.org.uk. If you are on facebook please let your friends know, even if they do not live near this site, because other sites like at Fennells, Jocelyns, Rundells, Deer Park, Pollard Hatch and St Andrews Meadow will follow in due course,
