Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2023)

Representation ID: 661

Received: 26/10/2023

Respondent: Mrs Nicola Griesemann

Representation Summary:

It appears as though medway Council is trying to kill off the High Street and local businesses. Charging for car parking, and raising prices so it's expensive discourages people from using the high street and local shopping centres. The lack of infrastructure and the sheer volume of traffic doesn't help either. Events are nice, but they're becoming very expensive, which makes it unaffordable for a large majority of residents (eg, £15 for 1 burger at the food festival). Travellers don't respect the local community and cost taxpayers far too much already without spending money building more sites for them.
