This Thursday is decision day for mast application

The fate of Vodafone’s application to erect a 12m 3G mobile phone mast beside Badminton Road in Coalpit Heath will be decided when the planning committee meets on Thursday (31st).

Members of the public can attend the Development Control (West) Committee meeting, which will start at 3pm in Thornbury Council Offices. You can view the agenda online. As you can see, this will be the first application to be considered, the previous item being simply noted.

There is limited parking at the offices but there are free public car parks nearby in the town centre.

Local residents will present a petition to members of the committee and urge them to object to the siting of the mast just metres from neighbouring houses. Claire Young will also have a say as the local Councillor.

Vodafone have informed Claire that they are still considering alternative sites but are letting this application take its course.
