Ask your Questions about Site A27 on the Local Plan (Wed 24 Sept, 6pm, Stenson House, Coalville) The Council’s Local Plan Committee meets on 24 Sept. Public questions must be emailed by noon Thu 18 Sept to:
member.services@nwleicestershire.gov.uk
One question per person is allowed. Include your name & address, say if you’ll attend (your questions will not be dealt with if you don't attend, however, it doesn't say you can't request for your question to be read aloud).
Here are some topics you might want to ask about:
- River Mease HRA/nutrients; this site is within a Special Area of Conservation for the River Mease and the proposal is built on a mitigation plan that hasn't been finalised or proven scientifically (by law) to work.
- Biodiversity Net Gain & green/blue corridors (10% Biodiversity Net Gain with fixed buffer widths & dark-corridor lighting).
- Highways (traffic impact from this side of Ashby in conjunction with other sites such as Money Hill/Burton Rd).
- Drainage (undocumented pipework, undocumented water ditches, surface run off during and after construction onto Special Area of Conservation). Access/deliverability (legal right of access, POS and road maintenance fee burdens on existing residents, adoption status).
We’re keeping questions polite, factual and specific.
Thank you for your continued support and reaching over 500 signatures!
