1. Object due to no parking for Brentwood Imperial Youth Band.
2. Object as new residents will most probably complain at the noise, upsetting our 100+ Brentwood resident youths that attend.
I have a strong affiliation with the Brentwood Imperial Youth Band and object to the whole area currently used by the council depot to be houses. There are two main reasons: 1) Parking will be an issue, not just on practice nights but also for when we hold concerts during the year. There will be literally nowhere for any of the band members and/or parents to park let alone visitors.
2) It is unfortunate to say, but not all people like marching bands and the loud noise that goes with it. Putting housing next door to the band hall is unfair to residents, as well as unfair to us and I'm pretty sure new residents will complain. Historically, noise complaints have the ability to create an unpleasant environment. This could cause unnecessary upset for the 100+ Brentwood resident youths that are members of the band.
