As someone who was born in Colney Heath, I know what a special place it is to live, and what gives the village its unique atmosphere is its size. Colney Heath is not designed for another 800+ houses, it has only one arterial road (which is busy enough as it is!), only one single-form-entry school, one tiny parade of shops, and now, just one pub. Yes we need more homes for young people, but arbitrarily forcing them onto a tiny village is not the answer. If you agree sign my petition below.
