Before you read any further,
be aware that these are PRIVATE home-owners
being offered derisory valuations for their homes, and being forced
into rented
accommodation. They are NOT council house tenants being forced to move.
THEY STAND TO LOSE THEIR HOMES. Imagine yourself in the same position.
Imagine a letter through YOUR door this morning, from the local council,
informing you that you have to move. You won't get enough for a new
home.
You won't be supplied
with a replacement home.
Not good, is it? Now read on.
The
ONLY
buyer
for
your
home
now
is
a

LOOK
OUT!

'Homes'
“If people still have concerns, they should
go and discuss them individually with the Partnership.” which is rather like asking the executioner for a
pardon....(and means we can trade you off, one against another).
  
Perfectly
good homes, being emptied, and left....the 'SOLD' signs added later are
just an attempt
to make this disaster look respectable.
THIS is what our homes are
worth, according to this court transcript.
£6000 homes sold for £42,000.
Some History....... or,who sold them - who built them?
Hands off Our Homes!!!!!!!!! - others are fighting around the country,
and are in
EXACTLY the
same situation as the people in Rowner. PUBLIC CONSULTATION????
How Taylor Wimpey operate. - and here. Problems with Tesco??
More 'Public Consultation' ...... more corruption
Another
lucrative development here...... HOME loss payments???? (30/11/07)
Councillor sacked for being
honest!!!!!!!!!!!
Whose idea was it that we should lose our homes? Who decided we would
only be
told half the story? Why should I lose what I've worked 25 years for?

Don't
forget, if you own your home, you are sitting on the land, which is the
most expensive part. If PHA pay you £100,000 for your home, that has cost them £100,000, and
you cannot afford another one in the area. If a new one costs
£80,000 to build,(or LESS!) it has cost them £80,000, and
you still have a home. Think about it. Self-build? That has been
totally ignored in this scheme. That is because it is all about PROFIT, not benefitting the residents.
Here in Gosport, Hampshire, it was
announced out of the blue,to 'about' five hundred private homeowners,
that their homes are to be destroyed in the name of 'Rowner Renewal', but
in
reality,
there
are
over
1000 homes under threat,from the Tesco Express shop
southwards.We were NEVER consulted as to
whether we wished our homes to be destroyed. It has proven impossible
to extract any useful information from the people responsible.
What is planned for the area south of the Tesco Express shop? How can
this be 'Public Consultation', when our questions ARE NOT ANSWERED?
The UK government has been defeated once, already, because of its
failure to carry out PROPER public consultation on nuclear power.
There has been NO proper consultation on this scheme, especially since
it started without even asking if residents wished to have their homes
destroyed. Also, the false information put out regarding the number of
homes under threat definitely negates any argument that this is a
genuine consultation process. It is planned to build 'a sustainable community'. This does not mean
eco-housing, with solar panels, wind generators, large play areas for
children, away from cars and roads, (as we have now) just hundreds of
stunted boxes, designed to generate as much wealth as possible for the
developers, with a large (probably) Tesco shop for the 'lucky'
residents. Plus a tower block for the wealthy to view the Solent. Of
course, the end result never looks like the pretty drawings first put
on display, to put you off the scent. THIS is what happens - Pathfinder Disaster - homes in the north and the midlands
destroyed. Don't let it happen here. Have a look at this info on the RVRA site - this is what will happen to you and your
home. (and
John Prescott now advises the Chinese on new, sustainable cities , plus after-dinner speeches on
REGENERATION! Can you believe it????)
The amount of time allowed for 'public consultation' has been kept to a
minimum, so that the destruction can start as soon as possible. GBC
intend
to
start
felling
trees
by
the
road
in
Magennis
Close,
yet
there
'are
no
plans
yet'...
GBC has a legal responsibility to
ensure the consultation process is carried out correctly. With so
little information available to the residents concerned, and so few
questions answered, they are not fulfilling this responsibility.
However often you ask questions, you do not receive answers. One hour
spent in a local hall, after a days work, trying to study information
that has not previously been seen, is hardly fair on residents at risk
of losing their homes. This is all loaded in favour of the developers.
Were you told EVERYTHING when you bought your property? If,
according to my Building Society, pre-fab houses are worth only the
value of the land on which they stand, ask yourself: 1) How much is my house/flat really worth? and 2) Why was I not told this when my
house was sold to me? The fact that NO proper plans are being made
available to the residents, the constant threats of compulsory
purchase, and the constant exhortations to carry out negotiations in
secret, all point to the fact that this scheme is of no benefit to the
people it purports to help.
WHOSE
IDEA
WAS
IT
TO
SELL
THESE
PROPERTIES
IN
THE
FIRST
PLACE?

| While
it
is
probably
agreed
by
residents
of
some
buildings
-
the
large
blocks
of
flats
-
that
things
would
be
improved
for
them
if
they
had
houses
to
live
in,
(but
not houses with a large debt hung round the
owner's neck - they must be offered a replacement home with no
excessive financial burden) , it does not follow that hundreds more
houses should be destroyed. People have bought these in good faith,
paid their mortgages, estate maintenance, council tax etc, and do not
deserve to be treated thus. It is at this stage that things seem to
move from benefiting residents to benefiting property
developers/builders. These are the houses within large, grassed areas,
with mature trees, where it is safe for children to play, picnic etc,
and families to hold barbecues, parties etc. While GBC is happy to
support the 17th Century Village in Gosport, it is doubtful that they
wish to see genuine 21st century housing built. |
| If
some
imagination
were
to
be
used
in
the
planning
of
these
new
houses,
we
could
be
looking
at
the
sort
of
dwellings
found
at
these
two
sites,
which
are
just
two
of
many.
BedZed and Dancing Rabbit.
From the little information supplied so far, it's normal developer
plans. ie: No imagination. |
| The
website
that
is
supposed
to
keep
residents
informed
of
public
meetings
etc,
www.rownerrenewal.com, has finally become live - 23rd
October. The 'consultation period' seems to consist of a few hours in a
local hall, AND STILL NO MAP. We, the homeowners,
need TIME to take all this in. We need proper public meetings, with
plans available of where the proposed destruction is to take place. (I
say
'proposed',
as
it does
not
have
to
happen). We need communications in writing,
not via a telephone number that residents have to pay for, with no
record of what is said, and one resident set against another. We need
regular updates on the RR website, giving people plenty of notice of
forthcoming meetings, changes in plans etc, so that busy, working
people have time to read and digest this information. We need
information from Gosport Council, an elected body, not from the local
newspaper, or an un-elected quango. We need a clear plan shown on the
RR website, showing what is planned, when, where, and who is paying for
it. Is this too much to ask in our 'democratic' country? |
