ECO TOWN STILL THREATENS FORD’S COMMUNITIES

87% Greenfield site, the airfield was decommissioned in 1959, accessed only by B roads

CAFÉ submitted our final response to the Government on 30th April outlining the many reasons why Ford cannot and should not have an eco-town. An eco-town is totally unsustainable at this location, the FAVG’s scheme is based on pure aspiration and no substance and most importantly the community does not want it.

We expect the final decision on Ford’s fate in mid-July.

CAFÉ will continue to fight against this eco-town policy and the FAVG proposal until the greenfields of the lower Arun Valley are safe.

 

   

NEWS…….

The doors have closed to the public but our MPs continue to question the viability and sense in the Ford Eco-town at Westminster.

Both have met with the Housing Minister, to press for Ford’s removal and had a Parliamentary debate on the issue.

The Government’s final decision on the eco-town list is expected mid-July, 2009.
