1. The Twickly Village Community Meeting Club (TVCMC) have had their 2019
Annual General Meeting. They collectively decide that they will raise objections
to a recent decision of the Twickly Council in which they wish to approve the
construction of a sports complex two miles from Twickly Village. The plans for
the complex show that it will be the largest complex of its kind in Europe.
TVCMC are of the view that the complex will have an adverse impact on the
value of the properties in the area. They are also of the view that the area will
suffer from noise pollution.
The Imaginary Local Government Construction of Buildings Act has delegated
authority to the Twickly Council allowing them to approve the construction of
buildings. However, the Act does state that all residents likely to be affected by
any such decision must be involved in the deliberation process.
Discuss.
