Speaking after meeting residents and contractors involved in building new houses in Glengormley, Gerry Kelly said dialogue was the way to resolve any concerns that residents had site:
“Sinn Féin have been contacted by residents of Collin Ward Gardens who voiced their concerns about how this development was to proceed.
“I've been pleased to make some progress today in facilitating discussions between residents and the contractor to clarify some of the issues and tease out possible resolutions.
“I will be contacting the rivers agency to examine how the installation of a pipe can prevent flooding which is one of the main items to be resolved.
“Hopefully today's discussions have addressed some of the fears that the residents had."
"Consultation and dialogue are key in ensuring that both residents and contractors can take account of each others difficulties when proceeding with a scheme such as this.
“Any housing development will cause disruption to the existing settled community. However, through good will and open consultation this should be kept to a minimum.
“A conclusion can be found that maintains the residents quality of life, allows the development to be concluded speedily and protects the environment.”
