Capstone Valley Deliveries


On Saturday, I (3rd from left) joined 20 volunteers who are local residents, Councillors and Association members in helping Tracey Crouch deliver 22,000 ballot papers to local homes.
The local areas included Lordswood, Walderslade, Weedswood, Chatham, Luton, Wayfield and of course Princes Park.
The ballot paper provided in the envelope asks a simple question;
Do you support the Campaign to Save Capstone Valley?
.
You have 2 choices, simply either a yes or no.
.
Now, I'm presuming there will be a very high percentage of 'yes' votes probably in the 90% region. However, the count of the ballot papers will be counted under independent scrutiny and the results will be announced in the local press.
.
Sadly, the referendum has no legal authority, but a massive vote against the proposals will show Medway Magna the level of opposition in the Medway area. With the strength of local feeling this will help in the fight to stop the building from happening and will assist your local Conservative Council who are fighting the proposals all the way.
.
This will add to the 11,000 people who have already signed our several petitions. You can find a link to one of the petitions on the right hand side of this blogsite.
.
If you do receive a ballot paper, please fill it in and return it. The details on where to post the ballot paper are on the rear of the letter.
.
Surely, with this level of local support and the total backing of your local Conservative run Medway Council Medway Magna will finally get the message and leave Capstone Valley for future generations.

capstone park is the only park in the area for families to enjoy instead of getting rid of the beautiful fields and wildlife money should be spent on doing it up so people can enjoy their time their

Thank you for your comments anon.
This is why your local conservatives are fighting hard to keep this naturally beautiful area. Once these areas are lost they are lost forever!
