Comments: Dear Mr Pattison I am writing to OBJECT to the above
referenced application on the grounds that: - the noise and dust pollution
would negatively impact the use of the footpaths around Summerhill; - there
would be a significant loss of amenity and enjoyment of the countryside in
Summerhill Lane and the surrounding area; - there would be an unacceptable
impact on the residents of Coppards and other properties in the vicinity; - no
testing has been done at local residential sites (including at Coppards) where
numerous residents have been identified as being noise sensitive receptors; -
on the day ‘testing’ was conducted on the application site, the concrete had a
‘technical fault’ so modelling has been used as an inadequate substitute; - the
environmental report is out of date; - the watercourse assessments were
conducted in June; - it is inappropriate to allow such industry and processes
so close to residential properties and the continuously expanding Hailsham
where the impact of dust and pollution will be detrimental to residents in a
large radius of the site; and - the loss of amenity with respect to the nearby
countryside and woodlands will be detrimental to the mental health of all
residents of Polegate, Hailsham and the surrounding areas when, as the lockdown
has proven, peace, tranquility and unfettered open space is essential. Kind
Regards Ms A de Meyrick
