      1. Thats our only local greenspace and park, next nearest is in town, over a 15 minute walk away.

      2. Its not houses, its these tiny “temporary” housing units

      3. That park was only finished by the council a few years ago for hundreds of thousands

      4. it leads directly out onto a small estate road that already has problems with parking,there are no plans to upgrade the infrastructure in any way.

      So weird. Reads like the mayors just gone on a solo run here. Don’t suppose there’d be a financial incentive for that…

      We have a housing shortage crisis, not a land shortage crisis. There is no excuse to be turning public parks into housing. The housing crisis requires swift and meaningful action, that doesn’t mean we should be be creating a big mess that we will need to deal with 20 or 30 years down the line.

      There’s always an excuse not to build housing…

      Reading into it, this is land zoned for housing that was temporary made into a basic park during Covid.

      Not saying people have to like it or approve, but it is residential land.

      Similar things happened in Galway, there was uproar when they announced plans to build on significant community green space in an existing estate, it was always zoned for housing they just took years getting around to building.

      It’s also not the Mayors personal project, he just signed an order based on the recommendations of the council.

      It’s really about asking if strategic land zoned for housing should be used for public housing or kept permanently as a small local public park.

      One comment said the nearest proper public park is a 15 minute walk away as if that were some unfathomable distance.

      If we developed our towns and cities on the principle that everyone is entitled to have a public park on their doorstep it would be a disaster.
