Name: Claudia Jackson on Mar 15, 2010Comments: I am 100% in favor of the gates currently erected at 31 norris rd. Nobody should feel fear in their own home and those gates provide the family with the security that they now need. What right does anybody have to take that away from them.Flag

Name: Sally Sarwar on Mar 15, 2010Comments: I fully support the height of the railings. I feel that due to the horrific events that they have suffered they should be allowed to keep the railings to ensure that the family feel completely safe in their own home.Having lived within a mile of the property for most of my life I believe that they have refurbished the house, including the railings, to a high standard which is within keeping of the standards of the majority of the residents within the local area.Flag

Name: Paul Fabretti on Mar 15, 2010Comments: I find it incredible that the Yates's, following Police advice (whose job it is to protect the public), erected these fences only to be told by the council that they are illegal. As a Norris Road resident who is fully in support of the Yates' fence, I struggle to understand why the Council can rule THESE fences illegal when we have all manner of metal and wood fences around the whole Norris Road area. Are the council also suggesting that the many wild, overgrown and discoloured natural shrubbery and fences are also illegal? If so, then the Council will have its work cut out over these next few months enforcing local residents to trim their fences to an acceptable level. I presume though that this won't be the case given the expense that the council is looking at to repair the local roads. Is a futile attempt at imposing inconsistent planning laws really a good way of spending public money? Is this a multi-storey extension to a 3-bed semi? No. Furthermore, when one considers the varied stock of the whole Brooklands area, it is surprising that the council can be so inconsistent with their planning policy. The long and the short of this, is that on Police advice, the Yates's took it upon themselves to defend not only their property and possessions, but their being. It strikes me as wildly inconsistent at best that Trafford Council are now seeking that they remove these fences. One would have thought with an election but 2 months away, Trafford Councillors would be looking to win friends, not make enemies of them.Flag

Name: Sarah Hocking on Mar 15, 2010Comments: I fully support the planning application to keep the gates at the current height. I understand there is no neighbourhood oppostion to the gates. I feel strongly that the Yates family should be able to make their house secure after the very aggresive burglary experienced 12 months agoFlag

Name: James Wood on Mar 16, 2010Comments: I live very locally to this residence, and was very impressed with the look of the gates when they were erected; Not only do they look classy, but they are in keeping with the style of house, and are no larger than the neigbouring hedges/trees. Finally - from a security point of view.. surely it is in the interest of the local council to ensure and support the security/safety measures of it's residence?Flag

Name: Carolyn Scaddan on Mar 16, 2010Comments: I cannot believe that the planning department have an issue with these beautiful gates and railings. They are stylish, tasteful, not garish in colour or style and in keeping with the house and the local area. I cannot understand why the planning department have an issue with this feature. It's terrible that this lovely couple have been burgled twice, especially as Caroline was alone in the house with her two young children when four violent men tried to gain entry. I am sure she was terrified. This will give the family greater peace of mind. Given this information, how can they be denied this basic right of protection. If the permission is not granted I believe a great travesty will have taken place.Flag

Name: Martyn Grimley on Mar 16, 2010Comments: I can't beleive you have objections to these railings. They are both simple, attractive and functional. Moreover by removing the railings you would actively put the Yates's at more risk, both physically and mentally. How would you feel if it were your family? Do you think the railings are within reason? I think so too.Flag

Name: Roy Partridge on Mar 16, 2010Comments: Aesthetically, these quality gates & railings are complementary to the locality and add to the ambience of these quality constructions. They are not dissimilar to many other such installations throughout the Sale area and in appearance, they are redolent of the design introduced during the Victorian era. An typical example of many others can be seen at the Council-run Walkden Gardens at the junction of Derbyshire Road and Marsland Road. 'Sauce for the goose'.Flag

Name: Richard Ballinger on Mar 16, 2010Comments: The gates are plainly in keeping with the neighbourhood and are lower in height than the hedge next door. As a relative of Mrs Yates, I have seen first hand the trauma and distress that the terrible burglaries caused to her and her family, and how the installation of the gates (at the strong suggestion of the local police who informed that family that, without further protection, "the burglars will definitely return") resulted in the family regaining their confidence in the neighbourhood. It would be a disappointing example of red tape over common sense if this family were required to tear down the gates and invite burglars (who are likely to have seen the media coverage) back to their home.Flag
