  1. They will probably build several blocks of flats, I should imagine Southwark Council would like to get their hands on it. they just leave it till it wants pulling down, as its not a listed building.
  2. They have not been answering their phone for about 18 months I complained to their headquarters twice and in the end I had a row with the staff in there and was told, I was not wanted in there pharmacy, so I went somewhere else, that was three months ago.
  3. The pollution in Dulwich is quite high, and its because Southwark Council has forced thousands of cars from minor main roads onto all our main roads, trebling the pollution and traffic, increasing Ambulance, Police and and fire services response times. (facts) Why because some big wigs in other countries say we need to get to net Zero so put in LTNs as they will make our streets safer. So far I have filmed about 20 over ten ton lorries backing down my road out onto the main road Lordship Lane. They don't care a monkeys for the people who, pedestrians, people who live above the shops, the schools that are on the main road, of which some, they have not long built to do away with a police station. They have allowed more flats above what used to be Somerfield's, let them build on their customer car parks and the same was with the site M&S,
  4. Her name was Natalie, I think visitors can fill it in. over the years that I have been in East Dulwich the Council has slowly tried to bring in CPZ, first they Converted The Coop upper part in to flats, the liberal Party James Barber told the residents of Ashbourne grove that they were for letting but turned out to be for person released from prison, but it still had no place for parking places and no where to put the bins, they still went ahead. they turned the coop rear car park into part of the shop the same happened to M&S. and what with the outsiders all coming to the market, it made parking in the area worse so they could go ahead with the CPZ, they then closed of Melbourne Grove with an LTN, which has forced thousands of cars onto the main roads, and that made parking worse and trebled the pollution and traffic on all main roads. so much for safer less polluted streets. pulled a Pollicisation on the main road down and turned it into a school. Its one big Con caused by the non existent CLIMATE CHANGE. and a legalised Robbery scam for MONEY One of several lorries backing down Ashbourne Grove out into the main Road Lordship lane
  5. Just been to the Meeting at the back of the church and you can hand the consultation forms in there and talk one to one of the Councils representatives. if the majority say NO to the CPZ they assured me that it will not be put in
  6. Could not agree more. the Council allowed the car park behind the coop to be built on, and as a result, more traffic on the side roads. now they want to bring in CPZ, I have lived in Ashbourne Grove for over 60 years, and the Council have tried several times to put CPZ in the road and have failed, because the road has so many crossovers, and now they want to charge us for any visitors that come to visit us. they have shut off Melbourne Grove with a LTN and it has caused more Chaos with artic lorries having to back out onto the main road in Lordship lane, forced a least a thousands cars and vehicles on to the main roads, causing more pollution and chaos in redirecting traffic when there is road works, and that's nearly every day. Ambulances and the police response times have also been affected, at one time an ambulance had to turn and go back because of the traffic congestion caused by these LTNs. and yes the Consultation form has been rigged in favour of the Council getting its own way, and does not tell you where to send the form. questions 8 and 10 gives them the permission to go ahead and count as a yes we want CPZ, Just another stealth tax as we all ready pay exorbitant Rates to pay for street maintenance. I think they want you to drop it in at the meetings. in which case it will be a waste of time as they will do what they want not what the people want, another stealth tax for the Council to waste, as we already pay for the street maintenance in our exorbitant Rates. say no to CPZ and LTNs
  7. The Council allowed The Co op rear customer car parking area to be built on and as a result, the roads around, had customers parking in their road. and the Councils answer to that is CPZ in the whole area. the residents of Ashbourne grove do not want CPZ, as they feel its just another stealth tax, and that the money is going into street maintenance, for which we already pay exorbitant High Rates. another income for life for the Council and will increase year on year like the garden waste bins and cycle bins.
  8. Its all for the Money. supposed to make safer streets, Ashbourne grove, since the LTN in Melbourne Grove has been put in I have caught on camera over 20 lorries some artic coming down the road, not been able to get out, so they back all the way down the road into Lordship lane, which is illegal. Now they want CPZ in the whole area and yes they have manipulated the Times Question, and if I read it right only 16 people contacted them to introduce CPZ. it gives the Council a income for the life time of the Council and will increase every year. those who paid for crossovers will have double yellow lines put in front of their houses to stop them parking on the road. its one big scam connected to Net zero and climate change rubbish. The LTNs in Melbourne Grove have forced all the vehicles onto the main roads there by trebling the pollution, remembering Southwark Council pulled down a Police station on the main road and built a school Lordship Lane. it has trebled the traffic on our main roads. one time in East h road because of road works and the LTNs traffic was diverted, and had a 3 mile detour down to Kings college and back to Hearn Hill
  9. City Airport does not Help with there flights in and out, I have lived in East Dulwich since 1963 and the planes were noisy then but now they have got worse because of bigger airports and more flights. they cause more pollution than all the cars in London, yet the Govs are not prepared to solve the problem. instead they lock you up for saying thing on FB and X. Its a mad Country we are living in with all these loony lefts dictating how we live our Lives.
  10. Southwark Council gave permission to change the offices above the Co Op into flats for people coming out of prison, but withheld it from the Local residence.
  11. Been against them from the beginning, if I can help any way, with computer work or as i have been doing spreading it in the different media groups. I live in Ashbourne Grove, I attended the last meeting protest in the village.
  12. Haslev, Could not agree with you more, even pulling it down will be part of Dulwich history disappearing, for what; to overcrowd what was a good area.
  13. Why not use the original ED police stn site in crystal palace/north? The police station in Crystal Palace Road, has holding cells and all the facilities necessary for East Dulwich, it served East Dulwich very well for years, Until some bright spark decided it was not big enough and decided to build a new one in Lordship Lane, and now it seems we do not need any sort of police station in East Dulwich. Now they have decided to over develop East Dulwich, and bring in more people and traffic, it seems to me, what with all these cut backs going on, because of the incompetence of Local Councils and the Government, Now is the time we need a police station, it?s probably one of the reasons crime figures are down, people just can?t be bothered anymore to report crimes etc, as nothing is ever done about them. And make no mistake crime figurers may be down according to the Gov stats, but they are still increasing and even more so because of the cut backs. WE NEED A POLICE STATION IN EAST DULWCH.
  14. One hundred per cent right. But a wider impact on our society at large must be taken into account
  15. Make Mr Barber Right. I would like to object to the granting of a 24 hour licence to the co-op at Lordship Lane SE22 for the following reasons: 1. We already have too many outlets for 24 hour Intoxicating liquor licensing in Lordship Lane. 2 The binge drinking and drunks in lordship lane every night has increased tenfold in the last 6 years, owing to the Government and Council policies, allowing night clubs and pubs to extend their drinking hours till the early hours of the morning, in residential areas, most of the time causing a nuisance to local residents. 3. We already have a parking problem at the end of Ashbourne Grove during the day time, and this is gradually getting worse of a night time, due to the clubs and pubs having extended hours, and to add, another outlet, all night will attract more cars and drunks to the area, causing more pollution and trouble to the area. I thought the council and the Government wanted to cut down on people binge drinking, yet now you are saying, you can drink twenty four seven. We will help you drink more by allowing twenty four seven drinking outlets. Really don?t make sense. You are, by allowing this, encouraging binge drinking, all day and night. Along with, ruining resident?s good way of life that they have enjoyed for years. I for one know that the area of Dulwich that I live in has slowly been deteriorating, through bad governments and councils changes to making profits and putting businesses profits in front of residents who have paid good money for their properties in order to live a nice peaceful life in a good environments?. That you are now destroying.
  16. DJKillaQueen Apart from those two changes, there is nothing going to be significantly different at this junction. In fact, the bulk of the ideas proposed through the consultation process (in which I took part) have been ignored. WHEN DO THEY EVER LISTEN TO THE PUBLIC.
  17. As a resident living close by to this and other developments, going on in East Dulwich, I am not concerned so much, as who takes over Icelands, What I am concerned about is the impact, that with more flats, and people, it will have on our way of life as residents, who have to put up with more speeding cars, more traffic congestion and pollution, less parking spaces, and parking space rage along with the violence, and more rubbish in the streets. This is what is already happening. Whatever, anyone on this site, can do to help stop the rot that is setting in East Dulwich, by objecting to these plans. I say thank you.
  18. Details of planning application - 12/AP/3773 on Southwark?s web site...

Please make sure that you state the application number and your postal address. Comments that you submit will be published on this website. I received a letter from Southwark Planning on the 12/12/2012. Telling me that the consultation period started the day that they received the Planning application, which was the 22/11/12, which according to my calculations that was three weeks ago. WHY ARE THEY NOW TELLING ME IN THIS LETTER THAT THE CONSULTATION PERIOD STARTS ON THE 15/12/12? Any one know the counils regulations on the consultation periods???
  19. It is not meant for any indivudual, were there is big money to be earned there will always be corruption.and I have known Property develeopers in the past to have paid to get there Projects through planning.Why are the planners set on pushing this through?and When it is so obvious that parking problems in East Dulwich are increasing every day. And overcrowding is increasing. Its time residents were put first Over profit.It has always been the same, when,unless there is a big uproar the council will do what the want, and it appears More flats and houses no matter what the cost to residents ways of life. And it makes it easier for the parking services to extort money Out of us.
  20. Thank you all for the warnings. They (Southwark parking services) always have a camera car opposite Ashbourne Grove, every day, just to catch the poor old motorist, who has not got used to the layout change, which the council have recently done. Weird how all of a sudden parking spaces have appeared in Lordship Lane, where as for years of motorist getting parking tickets, the Council have made these spaces available, and in their common sense, put one right outside Barclays Bank, stopping anyone coming out of Ashbourne Grove to turn right, not see what?s coming down the road. Could be some serious accidents, here. Just trying to get bits and pieces together for my appeal to PATAS, been turned down by the council on three occasions
  21. Car has now been taken by its owner after four weeks. The point that I would like to make, is, how you can fight the powers to be, when all they are concerned about is making money from these unfair and unjust parking tickets. The service supposed to be for controlling traffic and the well being of Motorist and pedestrians, these PCNs are for neither.
  22. kford Yes they are if you pay for it to be done.
  23. Siduhe . Thank you for your offer of help, it?s very kind of you, I have photos, and they show that I am about six inches on my crossover and six inches with the front wheel on a hard concrete verge. But there is still 7ft left for pedestrians and wheel chair and pram users. The point I am trying to make is that Southwark parking Services are targeting motorist who, are not causing any of the criteria that is laid down, about causing obstructions to pedestrians and other road users, obstructions to wheel chair users, obstruction to pram users and other pedestrians. In other words it?s out to make many at the expense of the rate payers. If you live in a road where the road is not wide enough to take two way traffic, you sometimes have no option than to park on the concrete verge to avoid the big articulated vehicles that are allowed to use residential streets, and scratching the side of your vehicle and knocking off your wing mirrors. You are not causing any traffic problems, but they are still allowed to rip you off with a parking fine. . It?s purely for making money. And that should be against the law.
  24. I have recently fallen foul to Southwark Parking Services and I feel that they should be looked into for the following reasons. They are now targeting Residential back roads for parking with one wheel on your own dropped kerb, which you pay the Council to concrete over. When they set traps with their Mobile Camera cars, i.e.: Kings Arms, Peckham Rye, they change the layout, so you cannot turn left, and then they allow their Mobile Camera cars to go across the pavement with no crossover, to perch themselves on their own box, made especially for them, on a pavement leading in to the old swimming baths. (Now park) Just to catch someone that has been turning left at the lights for the last 20 years. Melbourne Grove was allowed at one time to park on the hard concrete shoulder, the same hard concrete shoulder that is in Ashbourne Grove, because the road is too narrow for two way traffic, the same as Ashbourne Grove and probably loads of other roads.. It?s time that these unfair parking fines are looked into as it seems that these fines are there just to make up the Money that the Councils are losing. As in the last couple of months there has been several tickets issued in Ashbourne Grove, under Code 62 Parking on the footway. According to the Council there was only 19 issued in the last three years. None of these parking fines are for what people do deliberately, yet there is no justice in them and they are allowed to do as they please, how a fine of ?130 can be justified when No offence is being committed as layed down by their Codes. I.e.: No damage to the Pavement, because the Council has already removed the Grass verges and replaced them with trees and hard concrete, You are causing no obstruction to other road users, and finally you are causing no obstruction to Pedestrians, wheel chair and push chair users, as after, deducting the space that your car has taken up on the concrete verge, you are still left with, 7 ft of pavements, nearly the same width as the road. Then our wing mirrors might stop getting ripped off, unlike what Southwark Parking Service is doing. Parking fines are more than what a pensioner is allowed to live on in a week. It seems that the petty mindedness of these people, that are supposed to be running our services for us, Residents. Constantly seek to make us the Victims of these decisions, and does nothing to ease congestion, or obstruction, and is just a way to supplement the Council revenue. Its residents that have to pay, for the Councils and Government mistakes, by allowing more flats and houses without any parking spaces. We have more obstructions from the Council with their trees, than we have from cars. No signs, No resident?s letters and no justice, in allowing this sort of extortion from Councils who are paid for out of our rates. The code 62 that the Council is using for this contravention is very ambiguous and very unjust. A vehicle has been parked in our road for over three weeks without any Tax, and has not received a ticket or even been noticed, and ?yes? it is still there. I think that Southwark Council Parking services are picking on, motorist in the local area for turning down CPZ when the Council wanted it.
