Save St Thomas's Play Park

We the undersigned petition the council Review the emerging plans to develop this play park and important local green space that is protected in the Cambridge Local Plan 2018. Recognise the existing lack of public open space in Coleridge ward, one of the lowest five wards in the City for available public open space. Stand by the many public statements and policies that the Council has made that say they recognise the importance of green spaces to the health and wellbeing of residents.

The proposal to take away this protected play area needs to be reconsidered, whilst the use of garage sites to provide housing makes sense, the principle of losing existing public open spaces in wards with current open space deficits should not be contemplated.
