Photoshoot 7pm Wednesday 5th April 2023 at Homebase site entrance on Goodmayes Avenue to seek meeting with the site manager
This is a recording from the public meeting on the 3rd April.
It shows residents stating vibration from the construction site at the Homebase site is so bad that cracks are appearing in walls. Cllr Athwal is refusing to send me the dust management plan along with a record of inspections. Tonight's photo shoot aims to get some press coverage and a meeting with the Fairview site manager to discuss the situation. Notice below:-

Dear
Residents
There was a stop the Tesco Toxic
Towers public meeting yesterday with residents complaining about the pollution
caused by the construction of the Homebase High Rise. My Facebook page shows a
recording of the video citing resident concerns about vibration causing cracks
in walls, air and noise pollution and work being done outside normal working
hours.
My efforts to get the council to
produce their dust management plan along with details of inspections have so
far been ignored by Cllr Athwal, the Leader of Redbridge Council. A letter will
be given in seeking a meeting with the site manager and the local press and
elected representatives contacted.
Tesco Toxic Towers update
The judgement received
yesterday from 14th February hearing is at the above website.
Our skeleton argument went
in yesterday too. Our barrister argued at the High Court that the school should
have been inside the development away from the main road. The judgment above
ignored this point and this appears to me to be our best point at the court of
appeal.
If the judgement stands it
will mean developers will be able to place schools beside busy polluting roads
even when alternative safer sites at the same development could have been used.
It will be very difficult to
win, but if we do, it means a new application would need to be made which would
mean a substantial delay to the plan for the Tesco development.
Regards
Andy Walker
