Representation ID: 92146

Received: 13/08/2018

Respondent: Horstead with Stanninghall Parish Council

Representation Summary:

The Parish Council have received concerns from parishioners about the proximity to of the site to what is currently a very rural area. The proposed site will change the nature of the area beyond recognition - not only will this impact the mental well-being of residents, it will also have a negative impact on property prices and the ability to sell said properties. There are also traffic issues along the B1354, not just from lorry movement but from those accessing the site to purchase material. There is also concern about land use after the extraction is complete.
