Hey,
What is a recent controversial construction / development in you area?
Hey,
I'm doing an assignment on local planning controversies, which means any new development / construction or laws such as new parking restriction placed in your area.
I am choosing to find a recent controversy from overseas, so if you have heard anything on the news, in your newspaper about a new development such as a major highway or anything that is causing civilian protest please POST as much as you can here.
If you can, find news articles online or even have a search in your local newspaper or news site.

Do abit of research into rossendale, Lancashire. There they have had many recent controversial developments in particular the opening of 4 supermarkets within a 1.5m radius for a town of around 65000 (2001 census). Not only have the council granted planning permission for all these supermarkets but they have allowed the town centre to fall into disrepair recently parts of the Hurstwood Group (a regionally large construction firm) have gone bust leaving most of the surrounding areas town centres in rossendale looking like something from 'The Hills Have Eyes'. It's a crying shame for an area that was once so heavily relied on (shoe production, cotton production in industrial era) I believe that a good report on this subject will not only highlight the areas you are wanting to cover but could also perhaps (fingers crossed) have some impact on the future of rossendale.
If you are going to use this subject I would be more than happy to provide some accompanying info.
