EMAIL RECEIVED BEFORE CONSULTATION:
"I send an email expressing my annoyance at seeing garages (of which one belongs to myself and husband) put forward for future planning without consultation to the owners. I am sure you are aware there are nine garages and to see in print proposals for development on this plot without consultation to the owners was a shock to say the least."

COMMENT FORM RECEIVED IN RESPONSE TO CONSULTATION:
"Firstly the garages adjacent to Lavender Ave are actually in Wistaria Close NOT next to Lavender Ave but running in line with Wistaria Close, which begs the question - Did your surveyor know what garages he was talking about (There are garages at the top of Lavender Ave), because the council i.e. tax payers money paid this person to get it wrong and no one checked it.

Secondly, we bought our house 2 years ago because it had a garage, parking space and private road for parking - OUR PRIVATE ROAD - not just a garage. Taking this away will devalue our property. Are you willing to give approximately £70k for this?

Thirdly, we will have no where to park (We have 2 cars) our neighbours in the close will have no where to park and furthermore where will your 13 houses park their cars if we can't.

Lavender Avenue, the road leading to Wistaria Close is already a very congested Road - in fact at times emergency vehicles would have problems getting through and this is where we will all be pushed into parking.

Please take these garages off your proposed plans for Brentwood - save the tax payers a lot of money - The residents a lot of hardship and look at your council garages that you already own!"
