Residents in Droitwich South East urged to have their say on issues

Droitwich Editorial 10th Jul, 2014 Updated: 17th Oct, 2016   0

DROITWICH residents living in the South East ward will be able to have their say on their local area when two councillors visit on Wednesday (July 16).

Coun Richard Morris and Coun Ken Jennings will be at Copcut Park to see the changes which have taken place and to speak to those living there.

They will go to the new development at Lawley Way before heading to the Red Lion pub for an open surgery between 11.30am and 12.30pm.

They will also meet with members of the Save Our Green Open Spaces (SOGOS) campaign group and drop in on a number of businesses at Primsland Way Retail Park.




Coun Morris said the pair were looking forward to meeting with residents during the day and hearing about any issues they had.

“We have just received some really bad news with the Yew Tree development being accepted by the Planning Inspectorate and Secretary of State, despite our refusal.


“We have also recently had travellers on Addyes Way open space again so we know residents may wish to discuss these issues and any repercussions in more detail.”

Coun Jennings added: “These events are a great way to meet local residents in an informal way and to hear directly of their concerns.

“Whilst we expect disappointment with the Yew Tree Hill planning decision to be top of most agendas, we need to assure residents that we are still working on their behalf to try to get the best that we can from the situation.”
