We are annoyed to say the very least to find out that there is a bail House in Redland Park after being told several months ago that it was not there. We are now calling for this house to be closed with immediate effect and have written to the owners in this light.

We have tracked down the company that run this House and would suggest that any residents that have a concern about this House write to them at the address given below.

At a recent meeting with Shape Housing we raised the issue of  speeding cars and mopeds that often race along Dominion Road going into the Bath Foyer and also the subject of football again being played in the car park that was disturbing neighbouring houses.

Shape has agreed to speak to their residents and ask that these practices are stopped.

The Aster Group acquired the Marjorie Whimpster ex-residential care home in Twerton from the Council in December last year.  It is proposed that the site will be re-developed to provide approximately 30 new affordable homes for rent and shared ownership including 10 homes for adults with learning difficulties.

Plans are in the early stages and a full planning application has not yet been submitted. 

 In order to keep local residents informed Aster will be holding an open afternoon at the Millennium Hall on October 22nd to give local residents the opportunity to view sketch plans and meet the people involved with the development.

If you are able please go along if you are able and let your councillors Know what you think.
