kew bridge eco village under threat tomorrow
r | 14.12.2009 18:02 | Ecology | Free Spaces
officials visited the kew bridge eco village (occupied now for six months) earlier today and told them that bulldozers will be arriving tomorrow to tear down the fencing around the site. there is a call out for visitors to join them and resist any such attempt.
earlier today, council officials arrived at the kew bridge eco village and warned the occupiers that bulldozers will be arriving tomorrow (tuesday) to tear down the fencing around the site.
occupiers have called out for support to resist the attempt.
the site has been successfully occupied for six months after the land had lain derelict for years. there has been good outreach work to the local community, and there is much support for the example of sustainable living on otherwise wasted inner city land.
it is unclear what plans the council have for the site, but the pressure towards an eviction is clearly building up.
visitors are welcome from 9am in the morning to view the work at the site and help resist any attempt to remove fencing etc.
