We know you’re as concerned as we are, but it’s your councillors that need to know, they are the ones that have the power to prevent this mistake. They will be voting at a meeting on the 13^th October about the future of the site. Before then you can write to your councillor and tell them if you are concerned on any grounds, including the following:

• The timing of the process has been flawed and should be paused so it can be run properly.
• The site should not be closed until planning permission has been achieved.
• Councillors should have the opportunity to review the process so they can assure the public that it has been run correctly.

Only enough public concern will give the councillors a reason to query the process and ensure that it doesn’t lead to the prolonged closure of the site.
