Spelthorne Borough Council has raised further objections to the Eco Park proposal at Shepperton.
Surrey County Council will make a decision at its Planning and Regulatory Committee on 24 September on 46 changes its contractor, SITA, wants to make. However, it has been required to consult again on whether further issues have arisen.
Spelthorne Council has presented new information as part of the consultation. This includes recently published research from Public Health England on the impact of particulate air pollution, highlights from Surrey’s report on traffic congestion, the Council’s latest air quality monitoring results and the implications of the site being in a designated Smoke Control zone.
Cllr Vivienne Leighton, Cabinet Member for Planning, said: “This is yet another step in a long and protracted saga in which Surrey County Council and SITA are seeking to plague the lives of residents in Shepperton, Sunbury, Charlton Village and Upper Halliford. We have taken and will continue to take all reasonable steps to stand up for our residents and prevent this monstrous and unwelcome proposal.”
Cllr Richard Smith-Ainsley, ward councillor for Laleham and Shepperton Green, added: "This is a good example of local councillors working with their residents for the benefit of the community."
