Respondent: Ms J Baines-Burton
I have many strong objections to Min 38, the proposal to desecrate the Waveney Forest, and none of them are due to my being a resident of Fritton village.
Heritage: This site in my opinion is a shrine to those men who trained and fought in WW2 and undoubtedly is full of artefacts from the 1st world war too.
I am one of the fortunate few who have seen and indeed climbed into some of the hidden underground chambers.
It's a woodland full of historical nostalgia and should be left in peace, in one piece.
Highways: Should the proposal go ahead I am in a quandary as to which route the estimated 50 heavily laden aggregates lorries will take towards Gr. Yarmouth?
Highways have said that there would have to be a designated right hand turn at the proposed new junction onto the A143 from the haul road. This is in the direction of St. Olaves, Somerleyton and Beccles with no possible turning point. This makes the suggested "benefit" of the site being the closest provider of sand and gravel to Gt. Yarmouth an absolute farce.
Amenity: This site is possibly the largest, most secluded, quiet and peaceful recreational amenity that Gt. Yarmouth and it's surrounding villages have.
Don't deprive the general public of their right to enjoyment of such places.
There surely must be sufficient sites put forward that will not affect people's recreational activities and their love thereof?
Air Quality: The human respiratory system is greatly affected by particulates in the air but not as much as it affects horses and cattle.
The Haddiscoe marshes and pastures just adjacent to the proposed Min 38 site are now home to hundreds of retired, abused, sick and old horses looked after by a local sanctuary. These horses, together with grazing cattle, should not endure the effects of dust particulates which will make the remainder of their already numbered days miserable and this would come with very costly Vets bills for the Sanctuary.
These marshes and pastures are on long term leases.
Redwings Horse Sanctuary is in the village too and would have the very same problems with their rescued stock.
The knock on effect would be that the landowners would no longer be able to lease these marshes or pastures for grazing therefore creating loss of livelihood too.
The granting of planning approval of Min 38 would have a huge impact within the society of its local vicinity.
I strongly object to Brett's application.
