Additional Information

Hough End is an area of recreation and nature. People from a diverse range of communities enjoy the fields, including football and rugby players, users of the green gym, people taking other forms of exercise, dog walkers and people who appreciate the quietness and nature. It is also a valuable habitat for many species and an important wildlife corridor.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Local planning is not usually a matter for the UK Government or Parliament. You might like to raise the issues you are concerned about with your local councillors. You can find out who your local councillors are here:

www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government does have some powers to look at specific planning applications. This briefing paper explains more about that process:

If you are concerned about a specific planning application, we could help you to rewrite your petition in a way that we could accept.
