• Axis A50 (Burnaston Cross) Industrial Site - Willington Objection Annx G (PDF, 314 Kb)

Objection was on the grounds that a similar idea was rejected in 2009, there is no defined need for this type of facility in South Derbyshire, the associated traffic issues, and the impact on local amenities.

• Axis A50 (Burnaston Cross) Industrial Site - Willington (PDF, 225 Kb)

Draft notes for objection based on the noise assessment and the lack of required detail on the overheating risk

• Lucas Lane proposed development - draft objection (PDF, 1.1 Mb)

Objection to the application is based on the local need for these size of units, the impact on an already busy road and parking for employees

• Talbot Turf Industrial site (PDF, 414 Kb)

Further to the 1st written objection there was a Planning Committee meeting in 24 September 2019; our submission focussed on the parking space provision

• Mandarin site objection to Planning Committee (PDF, 218 Kb)

The objection was centred around the lack of bungalows in the plan and the layout of parking spaces which we felt would lead to on-road parking and reduced access for refuse vehicles.

• Mandarin site written objection (PDF, 227 Kb)

Further to the 1st objection (above) the Planning committee instructed that a Noise Assessment be completed (Condition 6). This was submitted in September 2019. The assessment did not explain in detail how the potential overheating risks due to the need to keep house windows closed would be mitigated. This is a requirement of the standards.

This was considered by SDDC Planning but it was rejected due to the fact that there were existing houses in the vicinity which were currently experiencing the same level of noise.

• Derby Road development - 2nd Planning objection (PDF, 678 Kb)

The objection was on a number of issues, but principally around the lack of a noise assessment given the proximity of the A50. It also question the validity of the traffic data, parking provision, and the location of the pedestrian crossing.
