๐Ÿšจ WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT - REVISED PLANS EXPECTED ๐Ÿšจ

๐Ÿ“ The proposed development on Green Belt land at the edge of Wilmslow has already faced serious objections.

๐Ÿšฉ The Environment Agency and Cheshire Eastโ€™s Lead Local Flood Authority rejected the submitted plans due to an inadequate Flood Risk Assessment. That is a major red flag.

๐ŸŒง๏ธ Residentsโ€™ homes and local businesses have already experienced flooding โ€” real people dealing with real damage, disruption and fear every time heavy rain hits.

๐Ÿ“‘ Our independent consultants โ€” who we intend to instruct again โ€” also identified multiple additional areas of concern within the proposal, strengthening the case against it.

โณ We are now told revised plans are likely to be submitted imminently, with the committee date unchanged. That leaves very little time to respond.

๐Ÿ’ฐ Developers can spend large sums on technical reports to persuade planners. As a community, the only way we can properly challenge those claims is by funding independent expert review.

๐Ÿ”Ž We have launched a new GoFundMe campaign to help cover the cost of scrutinising the revised plans โ€” particularly to ensure they do not increase flood risk to neighbouring homes and businesses.

๐Ÿ’š Once Green Belt land is built on, itโ€™s gone forever. ๐Ÿ’šhttps://www.gofundme.com/f/protect-butterfly-bank-help-fund-review-of-revised-plans?

๐ŸซตWe need your help!

Can you display a banner?

The Jones Homes planning application for Butterfly Bank is expected any day now. We need to make sure local residents are aware and ready to act.

To do this, the committee have organised banners (2m x 1m) with a QR code linking directly to guidance on how to object via the Protect Butterfly Bank website.

To make the biggest impact, we need banners placed in high-visibility locations across the area. In particular, weโ€™re looking for people who can display banners on:

Knutsford Road
Stockton Road
Chesham Road
Welton Drive
Church Road
Ashford Road
Fulshaw Park South
Alderley Road
Green Villa Park / Vets Place

If you live on (or near) one of these roads โ€“ or anywhere else highly visible in Wilmslow or the surrounding area โ€“ and are able to host a banner, please get in touch ASAP.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Email us at [email protected] with your name, address and phone number.

Your support is vital โ€“ a simple banner on your property could help save Butterfly Bank. Thank you for standing with us.

๐Ÿšจ Update on the Butterfly Bank Development (WM28) ๐Ÿšจ

Back in March, Jones Homes asked Cheshire East Council (CEC) to approve their request NOT to carry out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed 120-home development off Welton Drive.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Over 200 objections were submitted by local residents, Wilmslow Town Council Wilmslow Town Council, and councillors โ€” raising concerns about flooding, traffic, biodiversity, cumulative impact and much more.

But on 29th August (six months later!), CECโ€™s planning officer decided that an EIA is NOT required. The decision relied on a basic tick-box matrix, with no apparent reference to the objections and no counterarguments. It looks like our communityโ€™s voice has been ignored โ€” and the objections themselves have even disappeared from the portal. (Good job we saved them!)

๐Ÿ’ช The committee is preparing to challenge this decision. If you have experience in planning, environmental law, or EIA processes, please get in touch.

Yes, itโ€™s frustrating โ€” but this fight is far from over.

Onwards and upwards!

Butterfly Bank is land on the south side of Wilmslow that has been deemed to make a significiant contribution to the Greenbelt. It, like other Greenbelt land will be a thing of the past if uncontrolled planning applications are approved.
