027 Mr B Fuller Leisure facilities ok, although it would have been nice to have a pool in Rayleigh.
More skate board places floodlite of an evening also more places to keep youngsters occupied and off of the streets,
028 Mr J Lickfold
instead of trashing the parks.
029 Mr White More should be made of the rivers in the area. (Not building housing along riverbanks) - ie more made of sea.
We cannot attract tourists if access is limited and it has been proven that public transport is not used to its full extent. It
030 Mr H May
really does boil down to providing good access first.
Tourism brings its own problems. However, the airport has potential for job creation. I suggest hotels/exhibition
031 A R Wetton
halls/restaurants/taxi's etc can all gain from increased passenger traffic.
We need a lot of entertainment facilities where people can go perhaps a small hotel so that tourists can stay and explore
032 J Morley
around this area, also interesting shops
033 Mr R Balchin The Holmes Place sports centre at Rawreth Lane should have a swimming pool then ? Would rocket.
Stop destroying Rochford. Look at Saffron Walden or other towns that fight hard to keep their character as opposed to
035 Mr B Deal
trying to make another failed South Woodham Ferres
We really do need to offer facilities to accommodate our youths during the evenings. It would be more cost effective than
036 Mrs P Slade
carrying out repairs and peace of mind for local residents effected by bored youths is priceless to a nice community.
Leisure and community facilities should be funded by the people who use them not from tax payers as a whole for 20% of
037 Mr A Bawden
the population to benefit from!
We don't sign post our areas of interest. Very few people know of our town cycling event. Why don't we have a carnival.
038 Mr J Wright
Why not a Victorian night like Maldon has.
039 Ms D Quinn Small cinema required in Rayleigh
"Tourism" implies attracting people from other parts of the world to visit the Rochford District. No, I do not think Rochford
should set its sights beyond its own residents. Invest in facilities for local people. Don't try to compete with London or
Southend. Informal leisure facilities are important to develop and protect (parks, open spaces, children's play facilities).
Fitness suites are probably worth promoting too, where not adequately provided by private sector. I do not see a need for
040 Mr D Huskisson hotel or conference facilities in the Rochford District, unless closely associated with the airport.
041 Mr McGee I would not visit this district as a tourist. There is not enough for them to do.
043 Mr M Yorke Wade Encourage investors in marine activities on the Crouch. Encourage projects to do with woodlands.
The character of the area is vital to tourism, a few more places to eat like cafes would be nice especially at Hockley Woods
044 Mrs R Beaumont and Ashingdon Memorial Park
More theatres would be nice, if not profitable. Country walks and signage. A good cinema this side (Rayleigh) of Southend.
045 Mr R Abbott
Develop the upper Roach Valley as a conservation area.
We certainly do not need to be providing facilities for "Travellers" (as suggested in your article) - this sends the wrong
message (to our children/grandchildren). Southend Airport is currently a "virtual facility", there is clearling a customer base
046 Mr & Mrs J Cripps for a local Airport (European business/holidays) - the cartel of Airports needs to be broken.
047 Ms J Colbourne A swimming pool in the Rayleigh area is very much needed.
048 Mr S Reeves Many more, aimed at evening, to pursue outdoor lifestyles, off road cycle areas, tennis courts, parks, lakes etc.
049 Mr & Mrs Kitchen Provide more facilities for outdoor leisure pursuits.
050 Mrs J Samuels Yes the development of tourism is right if we are to retain the character and charm of our district.
051 Mrs D Langdon Not applicable in Rayleigh etc.
