Object

Initial Consultation document

Representation ID: 92148

Received: 13/08/2018

Respondent: Mrs Eve Basford

Representation Summary:

Object on basis of noise, dust, increased traffic. The boundary towards the village has no screening planting. 25% of the village is in close proximity to the proposed site.
The old gravel pit, once owned by Cemex is an eyesore with a dangerous lake (drownings have occurred) and has been semi abandoned for many years. No trust that an idyllic grassland would be restored. Current boundary screening lends itself to fly tipping and is more open during winter months. Have no wish to listen to heavy machinery, gravel being tipped, constant reversing alarms, and have sand blowing through the streets
