HATs Off to Planning Application
Stop Press
Possible last minute reprieve; the application will now not be heard at the June 8th meeting, which is great news. A number of new factors have entered the equation, and it seems likely that a July date is the very earliest possibility. The new factors include, an objection from MOD concerning possible effects on radar, and a request from Lancashire County Council for more info on shadow flicker and the possible ecological impact on water voles in the area! Don't you just love wildlife!
