East shouldn't become "dormitory for Douglas"
Ratepayers questioned government planning officers over the eastern area plan at a meeting in Marown last night.
Over 80 parish residents attended a meeting at the Marown Methodist Church Hall to raise questions about sites earmarked for development.
Some labelled it as a threat to the rural nature of the community.
Both Middle MHKs - Chief Minister Howard Quayle and Bill Shimmins - were present at the event to hear their concerns.
Charles Fargher is captain of the parish - he says people there are clear on what they want:
Person dies following road traffic collision at Hillberry
Contractors to start installing 20mph signs in Douglas and Onchan
Accessible bus stops rolled out across Bus Vannin network
Road closures in place following incident in Hillberry area
