WBAGI Fundraising: Giant Car Boot Sale with Roots Garden Centre Sunday September 9th
WBAGI and Roots Garden Centre are holding a Giant Car Boot Sale at Roots Garden Centre, Priors Court Road, Hermitage. |
Whilst WBAGI are very focussed on opposing the Grundon waste incinerator proposal we also have to be aware and consider the implications of any other industrial planning applications that are being sought in the local area, within the AONB. These could potentially set a very dangerous precedent, and we all know that exceptional circumstances have to be demonstrated for any development in the AONB. And close to WBAGI’s heart is protecting the AONB from inappropriate development.
