Objection

.The proposed re-structure of Buxton town centre is an insult to how Buxton is seen as a Spa Town with lots of history and character. The proposed re structure is putting living accommodation where it is not needed and taking away parking facilities thereby reducing the number of visitors that could visit the town. The lack of decent shopping facilities is already an insult and you are wanting to reduce the size of the precinct. Further eateries are not needed we have sufficient. Why not sit down with a mixture of current Buxtonians of all ages and get their opinions of your proposals and how they would like to see Buxton.
