A lovely day for a protest!

7th February 2017 by stopveoliainlincoln Leave a Comment

Thank heavens (literally) the site visit took place on Monday, not Tuesday. Ok, it was very cold, but that’s maybe easier than heavy rain.

Our great thanks to everyone who came along to Long Leys Road, AND to those who came to the meeting – and some who even managed to attend both. We wanted the council to see we were more than half a dozen fanatics – but that we represented a real and sizeable, and concerned, community – and I’m sure that point was registered by the councillors.

Special mention must go to those who made special efforts to be there through their own challenges and difficulties, and to our youngest protester, at just four weeks old!

Very many thanks to all – there’s no doubt that it helped us towards the unanimous vote to refuse Veolia.

Welcome

An information portal about the proposed Veolia Waste Transfer facility, Lincoln.

Update: In January 2018 Veolia abandoned their appeal against planning refusal. As part of this withdrawal process StopVeolia (& LLRA) were awarded costs against Veolia, due to their unreasonable behaviour. We are hopeful that Veolia have realised that the activity they proposed is inappropriate in our community. LLRA hold a legal defence fund of circa £12,000 in the event that Veolia re-apply.
