Stop Hertfordshire Council selling the greenbelt land in Park St for development
Eric Pickles gave the go ahead for a Freight Terminal in 2014. Nothing has been built so far and the case for building a Freight Terminal in this location no longer stands up. In fact other more suitable sites now exist that obviate the need to have one in Park Street.
It seems that no-one else but HM government can stop HCC selling this land. If St Albans people could vote out the HCC councillors they probably would. Residents and local flora and fauna need to have more protection. But HCC appears to be riding roughshod over local opinion. Can government intervene and put a stop to these undemocratic and illiterate actions from HCC. There is no national benefit to this development going ahead. But very adverse effects for the people and wildlife in Park St
