The Lib Dems on Sutton Council have approved a nursey to be built in Cheam Park, despite the 325 signature strong petition presented by local residents.
Plenty of residents turned up to the Council meeting last night to make their voices heard, but they were ignored by the Lib Dem councillors, including the last remaining Lib Dem councillor in Cheam, Mrs Burstow.
It is interesting that they'll build a nursery in Cheam Park when residents do not want it, but won't build a school on Rosehill when residents not only want it, but need it.
Conservative Councillor for Cheam, Holly Ramsey, said: "I don’t want to come across as anti-development, I don’t have an issue with more nurseries in the borough, but my issue is this development was pushed through but no solution has been offered about the traffic and congestion that is going to happen.
"Everybody wants to see the stables block developed and utilised because it is in a terrible state, a nursery is probably the best solution for it but that cannot be at the expense of the residents."
Join the Conservatives today to stop the Lib Dems making more decisions like this.
