Please find below details of the Village Meeting being held in the Sellindge School Hall on Thursday 1st September at 7.30 pm. We have invited various people from Shepway DC, KCC and other local organisations to speak (briefly) to us about the various issues that are causing so much anxiety at present with the Press in attendance. The agenda is as follows:
1) The Lorry Park including ideas of Paul Carter
2) The crucial Shepway plans for the development of this village – plans that may radically change our environment and not necessarily for the better
3) The arrival of proposals for a substantial number of wind turbines
4) The current situation regarding Otterpool Quarry and the role to be played by the Environment Agency in ensuring Countrystyle keep to existing laws in both building the plant and then if they achieve that in obtaining an operation permit.
This village has earned the respect of many authorities. This is due to the remarkable extent of village support for demonstrations, meetings, surveys of opinion, voicing questions and concerns to KCC etc. and your general willingness to participate.
If we are to continue to influence local authorities and organisations, it is vital that we all maintain this consistent determination. Therefore please come to the Village Meeting, hear the latest re the above issues and have your say and/or vote for what you want. It is not an exaggeration to state that you really can influence what will happen here over the next twenty five years.
Kindest Regards
Ronald Lello
Chairman
