Airfield Activities - Public Inquiry - Deadline for Submissions 30th June 2011

(Updated 28th June 2011) 

Harrogate Borough Council have served six Planning Enforcement Notices on an airfield site operator relating to:

• APP/E2734/C/11/2153034 - Go Karts
• APP/E2734/C/11/2153016 - Ginnetta/Racing Track
• APP/E2734/C/11/2153035 - Tyres
• APP/E2734/C/11/2153036 - Buses
• APP/E2734/C/11/2153013 - Scrap Vehicles
• APP/E2734/C/11/2153008 - Barriers 

The site operator has since lodged an appeal against each notice and a public inquiry is to be held to decide the case.

Residents who are affected by any of the above are requested to make representations to the planning inspectorate but must do so by 30th June 2011. Representations made after this date will not be considered. It is important that all concerns are made known as this will have a bearing on whether the airfield activities are curtailed or allowed to continue.

Representations can be made quickly and easily on-line using the following link and searching for APP/E2734/C/11/2153016 .

This will take you into the appeal against the Ginetta track where you can provide comments. A link on this page allows you to also comment on the other appeals. You will need to submit comments separately for each of the six appeals.

Further details of the cases can also be found through this link. It will be helpful if residents can provide details of why they are supporting HBC's stance against the site operator (e.g. noise, fire hazard, dust, fumes, unsightlyness etc) however given the short time available a brief note stating support for each of HBC's six Planning Enforcment notices will be worth doing and will only take 5 minutes.
