Bring Cllr David Owens to account for his abstention regarding Princes Parade
On 16/08/18 Cllr David Owens, who represents Hythe, and indeed Seabrook, decided to abstain from a crucial vote which would have a significant impact. Not only to local residents, but for our wildlife and indeed our quality of life. The motion was passed 5-4 with the local Councillor abstaining
We hereby request a second hearing of the development of Princes Parade in Hythe - with no abstentions.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept this petition as it's about something the UK Government or Parliament is not responsible for. How local councillors vote is their own responsibility and they are accountable to their local electorates. It would be for the local authority to decide whether to hold any further votes on this issue.
Once an application is made for the development to take place, all local residents have the right to request that a planning application be ‘called in’ by the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government. This means that it will assess the planning application against certain criteria and decide if a full inquiry is needed. For more information, including the criteria and how to request the call in of a planning application, see:

You could also contact your local MP, who may wish to request the decision is called in if they agree with you. You can use this page to find out who your local MP is and how to contact them:
