SIR ­- Stevenage Borough Council and North Herts District Council have recently published joint planning proposals under the acronym SNAP - Stevenage and North Herts Action Plan.

Among the many proposals contained in SNAP is the suggestion to create a Forster country park. We, the Friends of the Forster Country are strongly in favour of this, which would result in a permanent green lung to the north of Stevenage.

May we, through your newspaper, urge the public to support the creation of a Forster country park and to make your views known by contacting the SNAP Team in one of the following ways;

# on-line at www.stevenage.gov.uk/snap

# by email at snap@stevenage.gov.uk

# textphone on 01438-242555 or

# by post to The SNAP Team, Planning policy, Stevenage Borough Council, Daneshill House, Danestrete, Stevenage, SG1 1HN.

The closing date for submissions is January 18.
