Perhaps local sport clubs and governing bodies could club together to improve the space and provide much needed sports provision for the benefit of the future generation of common users. 3/3
UPDATE: It is disappointing to report that the final decision by the Planning Inspectorate is to refuse our application to unlock the sporting opportunities for the young & vibrant community at the Tooting Triangle. 1/3
As we now look to drop our interest in the project we wanted to say Thank You to those supporters who backed the project. We would also ask those same campaigners who objected will put as much effort into ensuring that the space doesn't fall even further into disrepair. 2/3
@opentooting ‘Original Tweet by author has been deleted’ that’s what it says at the top of the image. Were you were the original author? We were replying to you. It’s why we asked for an email, so there is a record of the asked/answered questions. We can have a proper conversation then 👍
@opentooting here is the original thread with our reply? Sorry if you missed it. We never received a DM or email from you.
Also why did you delete the original tweet? Is it because we gave you a satisfactory and reasonable response? 🧐
Look forward to chatting in New Year
@opentooting Merry Christmas, hope you had a good one with your family. We did send a reply to your original tweet John. We asked for your email address so we could give you an answer to exactly what you are asking. 😊
It’s all been quite quiet as we waited for the Planning Inspectorate to make their decision. We are now going to a public inquiry, be great to put across our side and listen to some of the concerns from objectors that haven’t been answered already through this process.
@opentooting Firstly Merry Christmas to you and your family. Apologies but I think you missed our reply. We have replied again to that original tweet for you.
@opentooting @TootingCommon Not the only ones waiting for an answer to questions @opentooting 👀 if you would provide an email address we can chat in the New Year?
The future of the #Tooting Triangle development will go to a public inquiry, expected to take place in autumn this year. Full story via @wandsworthnews: https://t.co/DEcLmZdSgp #Balham
@opentooting @TootingCommon Don’t want to lose the aspiration yet. This is a fantastic chance to provide so much more for local user groups on an underused and inadequate space.
John, please provide your email address in the DM will send some info. Be great to understand your learnings from Fishponds too.
@JonIrwinLD @TootingCommon We aren’t interested in making this political or argue around which party has done what. We just want to provide better service, facilities and access at the Tooting Triangle site.
@TootingCommon @opentooting@susiejgray09 You can also see what we plan to offer on our website. We aren’t hiding anything and will consult with user groups if we get approval. We want to be friends not nasty neighbours.
@susiejgray09 @TootingCommon @opentooting We have outlined how we plan to improve the facilities and services at Tooting Triangle on our website as well as consulting with user groups if the planning inspectorate approves it.
@TootingCommon @opentooting you can have a look at our website to understand how we plan to provide more services, better facilities and improved access to the Triangle space.
@opentooting Don’t agree that it will be worse. And we would be more than happy to discuss an ‘Open Tooting’ session with you John. if planning gets approved
Flooding is an annual event on Tooting Triangle effecting the use of the whole space by the community. Our plans include improvements to the drainage system across the site to help stop this happening regularly https://t.co/O0xInvOy5Q #balham#tooting#friendsoftootingcommon
