The meeting with residents at 4pm on a bitterly cold afternoon could not really be called 'consultation' with the residents. When I asked when they were proposing to start the installation of these lights I was told it would be about June of this year - so I fear it is safe to assume that they already have the lamps, made their decision and this so called consultation is a farce. I was also told that the lights to be installed would be the same height as the current ones so that is a plus. I asked if they had consulted with Ealing so that the conservation area would be treated the same and the guys just shuffled and could not answer the question. I have since learnt that Ealing installed a different type of lighting in 2011 and have no plans to change them. Their lights are not the old sodium lights but something similar on more eco lines. Why oh why is everything with Hounslow a fight just to achieve the sensible. Could it have something to do with the sentiments of Ms Dunne of Syon Ward who would like to see all of Chiswick covered in Council Housing because she is a socialist? |
