Residents Revolting and Say “No Confidence” in Rochford District Council

Action Group, ‘The Rochford Supporters’ have launched a new petition against Rochford District Council. They are convinced that the core strategy, which sets out land allocations for new housing amongst many other things, has been carried out with proper due diligence.

Details of the petition which can be found on the Councils website is available here –

Please register your vote of “NO CONFIDENCE” in Rochford District Council because the required formal Review of The Core Strategy,  the document that sets out the overall strategy for the future housing development of the District, has not been undertaken with due diligence by the Council. With insufficient investment in new infrastructure this has already resulted in unsustainable over-development and if continued with will cause material economic damage to the Rochford District and many aspects of the lives of residents.  For formal debate by The Council.

I recently posted a video on my facebook page about why it’s important to consider this relevant to our local area and this extends across the district.
