Put your planning objections in ASAP

The deadline has been extended to Friday 23rd but please get objections in ASAP. 

The directors are advising our residents to quickly review the planning essentials and put in planning objection urgently.

The attached document explains, in detail, the planning grounds to object to the development on the Pendulum Hotel site further down Sackville St.

Use this as a guide to set out your own planning reasons when submitting an objection. It doesn't have to be lengthy. Make sure you say 'Objection' in your comments.

PLEASE take a few minutes this week or early next week to submit a formal objection to Manchester City Council.

Every individual objection counts and helps demonstrate the scale of local concern.

Key reasons to object (very brief)

Towers up to 50 storeys – completely out of scale

Serious loss of daylight and sunlight to homes and our gardens in Granby Village

Harm to heritage and the conservation area we sit in.

Poor street design, wind impacts and heavy servicing and congestion from 2500 student beds.

Over-concentration of student housing (c.2,500 beds)

Years of construction disruption and traffic

Sets a damaging precedent for future developments

In short: this is an inappropriate overdevelopment that would cause lasting harm to residents and the area.
