Objectors

A children's home plan which drew almost 100 objections from residents has been approved, with one councillor saying she did not accept objectors' "horrendous omens".

And when I say 'successful', where it has been reduced - even these reductions are mingy and are probably not a good outcome for the objectors.

Cllr Riddle added that when she and other objectors raised this most recently, at Wiltshire’s strategic planning committee in October, they didn’t get any response.

Concerns were filed by several objectors to the proposals, with the potential impact of noise and the aesthetics of the refurbishment among those raised.

He became the first conscientious objector to accomplish such a feat before two additional conscientious objectors were awarded the Medal of Honor in the Vietnam War.

He has represented candidates and objectors for more than 20 years and is representing Mayor Lori Lightfoot this year.

No objectors turned up to speak at the meeting but concerns related primarily to noise from music and traffic.

Objectors told councillors at the district council meeting that any impact on sales at the shop from the planned food park could affect its viability.

OBJECTORS to the Ramelton Georgian Society’s plans to build in the grounds of the House on the Brae in the town were thwarted last week when An Bord Pleanála upheld the planning permission granted by Donegal County Council.

Ripley St Thomas Church of England Academy have backtracked on plans for 3m high fencing which objectors say would be a blot on the landscape.

Some concerns from objectors include the potential for noise at the venue, including live music on the outside decking.

The development was controversial with 16 objectors and four supporters.

The objectors feel let down and ignored by the current planning system and a petition to Parliament has been launched calling for a reform of the local planning process.

This was only arranged when objectors offered to host a visit.

About half the objectors left written comments on South Oxfordshire District Council’s planning portal, citing a range of reasons from the impact on wildlife to the lack of infrastructure to support the new residents.

Another big talking point was the disappointment from a number of objectors in regards to the errors in the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ initial projections of 2028 voter enrolment which affected their initial submissions.

A visualisation produced by the objectors for comparative purposes, placing a wind turbine some 1500m from the crossroads in the centre of Castletown so that residents of the village ‘can gain an impression of what we are facing’.

Councillor Stuart Smith, the chairman of the committee, said some of the objectors may have “fond memories” of the former social club.

Five objectors expressed concerns about the traffic impacts of the proposal on the surrounding road network.

Highways and parking was a major concern among objectors.
