Are you sick of the way Cardiff planning committee is ruining our city? Allowing ugly high rise developments to spoil the centre; destroying green spaces and allowing old buildings to be torn down.
Remember to include examples from your own area or across the city which you care about, whether in the past or threatened in the future. From the destruction of Guildford Crescent to the threat of a Museum of Military History.
You can make some of the following points:
The chair of planning should not be a political appointment controlled by the whips of the ruling group
The chair of planning should be answerable to the people of Cardiff. They should be appointed by a free vote of councillor, free of the threat of party discipline.
The voice of the people of Cardiff should be heard in the planning system.
Cardiff Civic Society is a membership organisation and charity that aims to conserve, sustain and develop the natural and built environment of the city for the benefit of current and future generations.
It is a charity whose objects are improving the built and natural environment of the city. Its role is to provide information and support, research and debate and, where necessary, to lobby local authorities, government and private interests to ensure the achievement of its aims. It runs conferences, workshops, education events and acts as a catalyst for other organisations with similar objectives to exchange ideas and develop skills.
It also runs a programme of informal and social events for its members in buildings and places that demonstrate concern for the built environment.
