Object to site LG16: Loss of employment land
Foundation House is in the middle of the industrial/business area. It may have housing to the back of it, but that's true of all Icknield Way. It has factories/offices facing it and alongside it. The concept of zoning was/is an important garden city principle, and one that remains important in the present day. It should not be lost, which would be the result of this proposal. We also need, in any case, to retain employment space in Letchworth. as the council's plan itself makes clear. This is a bad place for residential development.

Object to LG16:
- Demolition of one of the best quality and most up-to-date office suites is against any Garden City principles as well as removing employment without stating where the workers will go.
- The fact that this is the current home of the LGC Heritage Foundation somehow makes this proposal all the worse.
Demolition of one of the best quality and most up-to-date office suites to make way for housing seems totally against any Garden City principles as well as removing employment without stating where the workers will go. The fact that this is the current home of the LGC Heritage Foundation somehow makes this proposal all the worse.
