Dear Residents
I planned to update you all when I learnt that the developer had gone bankrupt, but I didn't get round to it as no one officially confirmed it.
In fact I only found out after seeing the abandoned site and contacting Council officers for the community money they were meant to pay for the development.
I understand that a buyer is being sort, and when they takeover they have to adhere to agreed commitments (ie. a building for GP surgery, youth development and education contributions). Although, in this economic climate no one can predict when that will be, but I will keep you posted.
On the site itself, I agree that the place is a eyesore and is a potential risk of anti social behaviour. I will chase officers to see if they have the power to make the site secure.
(Thanks Mark for the reminder).
The purpose of this personal blogsite is to pass Ward or Thurrock related information across, and to allow residents comment on plans or proposals. Residents suggestions for developments in the community are certainly very welcome.

I heard Sainsbury's were going to buy it which I was really pleased about. The trains, the roads, schools...it's too packed as it is. More houses will only make the area worse, is it untrue about Sainabury's?
