rabbitfluff Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Might be handy as I think I'm about 2 up from the bottom of a 4 year waiting list for an allotment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenanne Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I can understand why councils are wary of providing more allotments. Lack of land, needing to take a very long term view, etc - my understanding is that once they designate land as an allotment it HAS to stay that way if any plot-holders require it. I know, am going to be v unpopular here - but school playing fields or allotments? Council /affordable housing, or allotments?. Up until a (very) few years ago, many allotment sites were underused, so providing more didn't figure in a long term plan. However, semi-temporary land for growing - it's a brilliant idea.
