There's to be a meeting at St Helens Town Hall Victoria Sq St Helens to consider a planning application re a landfill site adjacent to Derby Rd on 9th December at 5.30pm Room 10.
Residents have successfully challenged this over the last few years but the developers have, once again, put in another proposal.
If it goes ahead not only will it mean all sorts of possible harmful emissions in the locality, possible effects on water table, dust and noise nuisance but also increase the number of HGV's in an area which is already inundated with such vehicles (see other blogs re this subject).
You can help by contacting the councillors on the planning committee in St Helens and letting them know of your objection. Also it would show local strength of feeling against the proposal if you could attend the committee meeting on the 9th.
With all the suspect developments taking place in this area residents have a perception that they are constantly being dumped on with proposals that very few communities would accept. This is not so much nimbyism but fudoism - fed up with being dumped on!
Don't just think it, do something about it!
If you are able to help in any way please let us know and amongst other things we can tell you which councillors to contact and sort out travelling arrangements if you can attend the meeting - phone Derek 0151 423 1692
