Save Tilbury Marshes; defend Tilbury's Green-Belt

Petition published by ThurrockLabour on Apr 03, 2009
11 Signatures 
Target: People of Thurrock

Petition Background (Preamble):

A huge chunk of land known as Tilbury Marshes green belt land is wanted for development as port related purposes. Tilbury says it's time for people to take a stand and say no to concrete over green-belt land.

This proposal is a major attack on precious green-belt land and a real threat to an important part of the flood plain.

Any development here would be wrong and represents the loss of visual and aural amenity for residents of Tilbury and Chadwell and Little Thurrock.

Petition:

We, the undersigned call on all appropriate planning authorities, regional and central government and, if necessary the Secretary of State to refuse permission for any development on green-belt land known as Tilbury Marshes.

In our view any development would pose a real threat to an important part of the flood plain and would represent real loss of visual and aural amenity for residents of Tilbury and Chadwell and Little Thurrock.
