Campaigners against a park and ride site being built in their community have questioned councillors on the way they have handled the scheme.
Brighton and Hove City Council wants to build a 900-space car park on one of two sites in Patcham but residents are united in protecting both Patcham Court Farm and Braypool from development.
Yesterday protesters handed a petition questioning the scheme to the council's policy and resources committee at Hove Town Hall.
Dave Tyrell, chairman of the Patcham Against Insensitive and Destructive Development (PAIDD) group, asked the committee why it gave the landlord of Court Farm notice to quit before any decision has been made on which site to use.
Councillor Geoffrey Theobald said: "Do you really want to evict people?"
PAIDD and other protesters will march on the council meeting on November 24.
