Last night at Send Social Club saw the launch of the Guildford Greenbelt Group (GGG) as a Political Party at its first public meeting since they had political party status.
There were four insightful presentations covering the plight of Send versus the Borough Council and the developers ambitions. Then one about the complicated process of forming a Local Plan followed by Mike Bruton of GGG who spoke about the need for thousands of signatures to force a referendum to change the way GBC is run by an Executive Committee. And finally Susan Parker gave her speech which was well received with plenty of applause and questions.

Chairman – Wood Street Village Association said:
“….GGG have done a magnificent job to help us all raise flaws in, and respond to the Guildford Borough Councils pro builder Local Plan. I have been involved with this organisation on a personal level and listening for Wood Street from the early part of this year, and really wish to appreciate the great knowledge and expertise in the local plan process, and the help given to Wood Street.”
“…GGG intend to keep working to get a better Guildford, and not is one that is determined solely by the developers and the University.”
