<div><strong>Teynham and Highsted Community Action</strong> <strong>Group</strong> has been launched to fight the two applications together known as ‘Highsted Park’ - a new town of 8,400 houses to be built between Faversham and Sittingbourne.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are a consortium of five local parish councils - Teynham, Lynsted with Kingsdown, Tonge, Doddington and Newnham.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our action group has been granted official ‘Rule 6’ status, making us a main party at the Public Inquiry which commenced on 11 March and is now scheduled to conclude on 31 October.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Following its conclusion, the Planning Inspector will prepare a report to recommend whether or not the applications should proceed.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our role at the Inquiry is to help explain how this development would have a catastrophic impact on our local community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Highsted Park, if granted permission, would:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>- urbanise the rural countryside by building 8,400 houses on valuable agricultural land, needed for food production
</div>
<div>- cause harm to designated heritage assets and habitat sites
</div>
<div>- create a new motorway junction off the M2 within the protected Kent Downs ‘National Landscape’
</div>
<div>- increase traffic and worsen air quality on the local road network
</div>
<div>- run link roads through conservation areas and ancient woodland
</div>
<div>- put excessive strain on other local infrastructure such as healthcare provision, education, water supply and drainage
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are working closely with Swale Borough Council and the Five Parishes Group to bring specific areas of expertise to the proceedings - whilst also ensuring that the lived experiences and specific concerns of local residents are directly represented.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Leading barrister Simon Bell, a specialist in planning and environmental law, has been instructed to represent our action group. We have also appointed Bruce Bamber of Railton TPC, a consultant with over 30 years’ experience in the transport industry, to act as expert witness on highways matters. Our heritage expert is Nicholas Doggett of Asset Heritage Consulting.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As parish councils, our financial resources are limited – which is why we need your help to fund legal and professional fees.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please donate whatever you can, to stop the ‘Garden of England’ turning into a construction site.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Note: all funds raised are paid directly into the Action Group's fighting fund bank account, which is managed by Lynsted with Kingsdown Parish Council.
</div>
