Cottingham South residents will have seen from our latest ‘In Touch’ newsletter that we are concerned about the state of both Cottingham House and Cleminson Hall. Both of these properties are open to vandalism and are fast becoming a blot on ambience of our residential area. Some residents on Longmans Lane have already experienced graffiti, trespassing and general anti social behaviour. This is not acceptable.
As we said in our newsletter, we believe that residents deserve better. At present, both sites are owned by property developers. Developers have a duty to maintain unused buildings and gardens. Whilst we appreciate the economic climate is not vibrant for developing, it is no excuse for letting Cottingham House and Cleminson Hall fall into a state which disrupts the lives of residents.
As your local Conservatives, we are determined to push for action to get the developers to maintain these sites to make them safe and secure.
Taking this issue up on behalf of residents, Local Cottingham Conservative Campaigner Lena Slater has set up the Cottingham Eyesores Action Group petition to pressure the owners to act responsibly and to clean and secure the sites.
Please get involved and sign our online petition here and let’s get some action to improve the lives of Cottingham residents.
