What a crazy situation, surely the Parish Council have more important things to worry about. If they are so worried about the risk of noise pollution etc.. why not give the man a trail and see how many genuine complaints are made?

People should be getting encouraged to take up allotment growing not getting harassed for trying to improve their crops.

I hope the Parish Council are made a laughing stock by the N.S.A.L.G. lawyers...

Jim has every right to erect a poly-tunnel on HIS allotment. The PC Chairman and Clerk should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. Remember this when it is time to vote for PC members next time around. Good luck Jim!

]]> Sun, 1 Jun 2008 02:38:36 UTC 3693498 Mr Sam Watson [Signature #56] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3693184?utm_medium=rss The alternative is that the allotment plots would be run down or dis-used. Over here, the Marlow Town Council have none of these silly rules. If said structure is to be used in accordance with Allotment Holder Rules, ie for the growing and cultivating of vegitation, then it is fine.

Stop being so picky Buckland Brewer DC and go and catch someone setting fire to a car or threatening OAP's

]]> Sun, 1 Jun 2008 12:48:38 UTC 3693184 charlotte march [Signature #55] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3691895?utm_medium=rss As an allotmenteer myself i think that this action is appalling. As food prices increase more people want to grow their own, and in the process get more exercise. I intend to build my own plastic polytunnel or plastic covered greenhouse next year and the council will have no objection to it. This is a crazy situation and you should be supporting Jim's efforts not opposing them.

]]> Sun, 1 Jun 2008 05:44:59 UTC 3691895 Mr Peter Sandon [Signature #54] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3689659?utm_medium=rss Jim's allotment offends nobody. It is 150 yards fromthe nearest house and cannot be seen except from the allotment path or a helicopter. There is so much polythene on neighbouring fields that Jim's plastic greenhouse is a drop in the ocean by comparison.

The parish council should look at other allotments in the area and see the developments in place instead of being stuck in the past.

It increases growing potential and yield. Surely things should be put in place to encourage people to grow their own as oppossed to ridiculous red tape and allotment waiting lists the length of a magic beanstalk!

]]> Wed, 28 May 2008 09:19:01 UTC 3674980 mr michael finan [Signature #16] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/3674490?utm_medium=rss The position of the allotments will allow a polly tunnel to be errected and not hinder the view of the approach to the village. I see no reason for refusal as planning permission is not required. The council should give their reasons behind the refusal and if none is given or the reason is not valid the matter should be dropped

What message do they give to the community on green issues?
'We couldn't give a monkey's if you are an old pensioner trying to grow some veg and save a bit of money. Naff off.'
Well done Buckland Brewer Parish Council, lets hope when you reach Jim's age we haven't learnt from your example.

We had the Dog Bin Issue, what a farce that was before climb down by council. We had the egg timer which had a mind of its own. (I wonder what happened to that) At least that gave us all a good laugh.etc. etc. My challenge to council? put the matter to the test. Put up, or as our chairman puts it "shut up" or do nothing as is the norm.
