Northern Correspondent Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 9 hours ago, the stinking enigma said: Just had a leaflet through the door about this shit. I'm no genius ( on this subject) but i'd say it came from those against it. Quite glossy, Must have cost a few quid to print them all. 'Bout 8 points, all negative, house price drop, damage to the ayres, light pollution - though that no longer really a concern since they built a prison 3 miles away with windows on the roof. Quite surprised to learn that buildings like these are exempt rates? Anyway meeting sometime methodist hall in bride, sha'n't be going will keep the forums updated.. northern correspondent.

Non-Believer Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I got one too, just tried to upload a pic but over limit. To summarise; Low pay for employees, adverse effect on house prices, built off island, traffic increase with proposed 200 extra bodies, stray dogs, opening door to developments elsewhere, light pollution, litter, loss of quiet on Ayres, Dark Sky malarkey, nesting birds, biosphere effect, blah blah blah. Centred on golf which is a dying sport, one step away from a caravan park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Sad, isn't it, when he is prepared to spend his own money to improve facilities on the island (and possibly make himself some more money), that there are those determined to prevent it. Shades of AG in the 90's? Good luck to him I say, but then, I haven't had a leaflet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centred on golf which is a dying sport, one step away from a caravan park. I think it will be good for the area. All of those reasons are clutching at straws really. Extra traffic in Jurby? They built a whole fucking prison there no long ago but they don't want tourists staying at a nice tourist resort. Typical attitude. I'd like to say that's typical Manx crab behaviour but I know damn well that the ones who will be moaning the most won't be Manx at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I mentioned earlier on that no, absolutely, no public money should be spent/loaned.granted to any part of the development that is going to be sold on.

As per my post on the Holiday Parks thread - I think there's application in for 117-ish, of which 10 are earmarked for rental purposes. They'll probably be in the very bottom, boggy corner bit....away from the nice people who've stumped up..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lezayre Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 At this moment in time there are 150 signatures on the petition. 37 of those are anonymous and off the rest only 16 reside in Bride. Speaks volumes, the whole village must be up in arms! You can ride a horse on the road in Bride but not much else, if the animals natural habitat was roads they would have been born with indicators and brake lights. simply a case of NIMBY.
