Stop sale of green space on Quantock Drive.

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

To stop the sale of green spaces on Simone Weil Ave/Quantock Drive, Ashford for potential development.
Local residents need green spaces in a built up estate. This will take that space away. There is no other way to stop this happening unless government action is taken.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about local planning decisions are a matter for the relevant local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
