In October 2007 we prepared two documents, the first was an analysis of the letters of objection and the second an analysis of the letters of support. These documents were then presented to the officers at Richmond Council as evidence to support our planning application 07/1235/FUL.

 

The former aimed to analyse the 25 letters of objection received by Richmond Council, by condensing the objections into seven main categories and offering our reply to them. As for the letters of support, we did a similar exercise the purpose of which was to again condense the overwhelming 200 plus letters of support we received into a brief, easy-to-read document, focusing on the positive contributions that our existence is making as perceived by the local community. Below are the two resulting documents.
