Glasgow City Council wants to allow house-building on the Linn Park golf course<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This site is Green Belt. Building on Green Belt should be a last resort, used only when every other option has been exhausted. The Council has other options. Glasgow only needs to build around 20,000<\/strong> homes. This plan proposes land for 30,000 homes. Linn Park isn’t needed to meet the Council’s target.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Linn Park matters<\/strong>. For generations it’s been used and loved by local people for walking, running, golf, dog-walking, and simply enjoying green space close to home. Once it’s built on, it’s gone forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The consultation is open now \u2014 you have until 18th November to object.<\/strong> You need to make a separate representation for each site. The site references are CfS240538 (<\/strong>the Golf Course), CfS250036<\/strong> (the clubhouse ) <\/strong>and CfS250037<\/strong> (the Car Park). They also plan to remove land from the park for the cemetery. This is Policy 16<\/strong>. The following pages show you how to object for each site\/policy: CfS240538 <\/a>,<\/strong> CfS250036 <\/a><\/strong>, CfS250037<\/a><\/strong>, Policy 16<\/a><\/strong>. For each site, ask for it to be deleted from the plan. For the cemetery expansion, ask for all references to Linn Park Cemetery expansion to be deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Give your reasons, in your own words. Here are some examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Add anything personal: how often you use the park, a specific memory, why it matters to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Join the campaign<\/strong> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Protect Linn Park Glasgow City Council wants to allow house-building on the Linn Park golf course This site is Green Belt.
