Sometimes, it's better to be kind, than right.

When we wanted Falmer, we didn't like NIMBYs so why should we support them now?

Never thought I'd ever hear YOU say something so sensible.

You can hear me? Wow!

I must be cruel, only to be kind.

That's what you get from joining a thread from the last page

I'm onto it now

No, but there are houses going to be built, within a quarter of a mile from my house too.

So someone who objects is automatically a nimby? I'm surprised you feel that way

Do you think there should be more houses for people? If the answer is yes, then those that object are saying, not near me.

I know the traffic is a concern, but the whole of the Sussex area of the A27, is a concern, and maybe something like this will help to get the updates that are needed.
I personally think a roundabout will work better than lights.

pretty much. people cry out for housing, for business that can provide employment, when anyone want to develop a site the cry is "not here though". its a prime site for development and it will benefit the future of the club, get building.

I believe in a system that allows people to question and not just use an argument that we need houses therefore they should be built anywhere that is such an easy copout
If arguments are put forward and then those concerns addressed then good ..but let's not blindly call anyone that objects is a nimby which is what you implied..as regards to the road amendments put forward I will watch with interest, as I'm puzzled as to how it will work as it currently stands

No, he or she could be a BANANA - build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything.

But NIMBYs and BANANAs are the curse of the south east - the football club nearly died because of their machinations - and they're still holding up much needed development

Anybody know if the cancer unit that was originally going to be part of the hotel deal is still going ahead, or if it was just a cynical sweetener for the original deal?

Well that's just a plain stupid post..I never said build nothing ..did I?
I've said my piece ..and I'll leave it at that ..on here that is

 

[Notters]

You don't live local to the site do you

Would love something like this in newhaven.

I didn't claim you did say that - you've invented that bit. You asked a question and I answered it

 

[The Merry Prankster]

There is a case for building there but they haven't made it. Pollution levels are already 35% above the legal maximum and they want to put the primary school (which is too small incidentally) up next to it. The 30% affordable housing won't be 30% or affordable and the management of the flood plain has been called into question. Blindly approving it because the Albion are involved does no one any favours.

 

[sjamesb3466]

You live in Leicester, not the overcrowded South East

I grew up in Hassocks and visit the area regularly. It's no more overcrowded than anywhere else. People just don't like change or progress

Likewise locally

I felt it was implied ..I apologise as that's not the case.

My argument is that developers wether they be associated with the Albion or not should be challenged where there are legitimate concerns ... it's the principle(?) ..I haven't looked at the content of the objections to date ..but I do know the proposed road layout at Lancing Manor raises questions..no doubt more will unfold in the goodness of time

We are getting new houses near me in Augustfields. The land was fenced off last week. We have massive problems with traffic on the A259, but people need homes.

Have you read the planning application? The answer to the drainage question is there. I don't blindly support it just because the Albion are involved.
