Whittlesey Town Council planning committee voted to object to the new application by Johnsons Aggregates Recycling Ltd (CCC/24/091/VAR) to significantly increase IBA/IBAA production at Saxon Pit. They are working on a detailed response (as are Saxongate). The planning meeting was held on Monday 16/09/24.
A resident attending the meeting highlighted significant issues with the transport plan which were noted by the council. Please note Cambridgeshire County Council do not have to follow recommendations from Whittlesey Town Council, but the comments will be on record. It is important everyone sends in their feedback. Residents comments and objections are not published.
The councillors said they would push for the Cambridgeshire County Council decision meeting to be held in Whittlesey. Failing that, at the request of Saxongate councillors Gurninder Singh Gill and Dr Haq Nawaz said they would look to lay on a free minibus so people from the town could attend the public gallery for the meeting which is due to be held at Huntingdon (DATE tbc). It should also be shown via webcam.
