A message to Manor Garden Allotments supporters
Posted: June 11, 2007 Filed under: Events, Olympics Comments Off on A message to Manor Garden Allotments supportersThe following appeal is being circulated to friends and supporters of the Manor Park Allotments campaign:
There are some important events coming up we would like to ask your help with.
The closing date for the revised Olympic Park Planning Application public consultation is Friday 15thJune. There is information being added to the lifeisland.org website on how to go about sending in an objection.
Our Judicial Review will take place in the High Court on Thursday 14th of June. We are taking them to court on the basis that they would be breaking the promises they have consistently made that we would not be evicted before a suitable relocation site had been found for us. The Compulsory Purchase Order was approved, as was the Olympic Delivery Act, on the assumption that a relocation site would be provided. Yet still the LDA plan to evict us on 2nd July, relocation site obtained or not!
It would be impressive and attract media attention if there was a supportive presence with placards outside the Royal Courts of Justice on the Strand from 9.30am on Thursday. The hearing starts at 10.30. We will be producing a number of placards but any extras will add to the effect. Please come and show solidarity with Manor Garden Allotments. Be sure to check the website www.lifeisland.org on Wednesday evening for up to date information.
Many thanks for your support to date,
Yours,
Julie Sumner
Lifeisland Coordinator and Plot holder
