Otterpool Waste Site - take it off the preferred sites list...

Hallo Margaret I do not know if the process of obtaining a licence from the Environment Agency will permanently delay Countrystyle starting their operations. I do know that they have plenty of hurdles to overcome to do so and they must also meet all the planning conditions. As for the site being on the preferred options list, I'm afraid that's no more than a recognition that the site has planning permission (albeit with lots of conditions) for a waste operation. We lost that particular battle and must concentrate on making sure that the EA does its job. I agree that housing is preferable to a waste plant but we don't have the choice. Do by all means respond to the consultation on the waste and mineral sites but don't expect to be able to overturn what has already happened through the planning process. Kind regards, Susan

Dear Susan I had a enormous file from KCC (URS) about the development at Otterpool. I went through it all and I know that they were granted permission to build their awful site at Otterpool. can this be changed in any way or permanently delayed with the help of the Environment agency?. Just recently they Airport Cafe has taken on more staff and open longer hours to cope with increased custom ,and if this waste plant goes ahead they will loose that plus all the other reasons nearly 2000 people do not want it there. Has any of this been taken into account? In an area of outstanding beauty non of this was mentioned in the long report. Please if it can be taken of the preferred sites list it would be wonderful. As Sellindge is down for more houses in the Shepway Core plan it would seem to me to be the lesser of two evils to have a small development in the Quarry and leave the green sites alone in Sellindge. Yours Sincerely Margaret Ludlow.
