Having lived in Whitegate Road for the past 30years I cannot think there is much you could possibly plan that would make this area worse. The only reservation I have is the mention in the plan for restaurants and bars in this vicinity. Since the opening of Mayhem, Seymours and varsity the quality of our lives has deteriorated dramatically with the increased vehicle use and noise of drunken people returning to their cars in the early hours of the morning.
I would welcome positive development that would enhance the value of my property, this would include development of the car park which would prevent football abd skateboards being played with here causing damage to my property and car. If Housing is to be the objective, it needs to be a mix between private and social as we already have a considerable amount of households here where there are no working contributing people living.
