<div><strong>Dear Friends and Supporters,</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We urgently need your help to challenge the reckless decisions being made by Chelmsford City Council (CCC) that threaten our communities. CCC has irresponsibly selected Hammond's Farm as the preferred option for development in the local plan—a decision we believe is gravely flawed and detrimental to our area. In response, the Parish Councils of Little Baddow, Danbury, Sandon, and Boreham have united in a firm stand against this development.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>16a in the Local Plan:</strong> Hammond's Farm is the proposed new garden Community consisting of 3,100 houses and 500,000 square feet of industrial and business park to be built on prime high quality farmland.
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>16b in the Local Plan: </strong>An additional 500,000 square feet for business park and industrial site development will be built on prime high quality farmland.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This massive development will forever alter the character of our area bringing massive disruption with no expansion of infrastructure.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why This Matters</strong>
</div>
<div>The selection of Hammond's Farm for development raises significant concerns:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Environmental Devastation: </strong>Potential catastrophic harm to local wildlife and natural habitats.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Infrastructure Overload: </strong>Unsustainable pressure on already strained roads, schools, and healthcare facilities.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Disregard for Community Voice:</strong> A decision that blatantly ignores the voices and concerns of local residents.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Loss of Precious Farmland:</strong> Irreversible destruction of high-quality farming land at a time when food security is paramount.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our Goal</strong>
</div>
<div>We are determined to raise funds to cover the legal fees necessary to mount a vigorous challenge against this disastrous decision. Our goal is to ensure that any development in our area is conducted fairly, transparently, and in a way that genuinely reflects the needs and desires of our community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your contributions will directly fund:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li>Legal Representation: Hiring top-tier Barristers to fight our case.
</li>
<li>Expert Consultations: Engaging leading environmental and planning experts to provide critical evidence.
</li>
<li>Administrative Costs: Covering court fees and other related expenses.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Note:</strong>
</div>
<div>1. All donation made will be held in trust by Little Baddow Parish Council.
</div>
<div>2. If you prefer to donate anonymously even the organisers will not be able to see who has made the donation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Join Us in the Fight</strong>
</div>
<div>Every donation, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to stopping this ill-conceived development. Together, we can ensure that the future of Chelmsford is decided in a way that is fair, sustainable, and in the best interest of all residents.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your support and for standing with us in this critical battle.
