The investigation work started today. It turns out to be really quite invasive. They have brought along gravel and concrete and are inserting pipes to measure the ground water. You can see all the kit, including a large skip to remove waste.
The plans have been submitted. There are already pages and pages of test results. But they are not waiting until August to find out if they are going to get planning permission. They are spending even more rate payers’ money on even more ground investigations.
OCC’s Senior Development officer told one of the campaign members that “they have no idea what is under there”.
If you want comment on the planning application, this link will take you straight there. We have until June 19th.
