No more in our back yard, say Belgrave neighbours
THE chief minister yesterday objected to plans to expand the Belgrave Vinery industrial site.
Deputy Lyndon Trott joined outraged residents on the first day of the planning inquiry into area plan amendments.
The Environment Department has over the summer put forward several amendments to the rural and urban area plans.
Yesterday, islanders had their chance to respond regarding the urban area.
The scheme to increase the temporary employment area at Belgrave Vinery by an acre proved contentious.
Mr Trott spoke as a St Sampson’s deputy. ‘Residents feel the site is growing to a ridiculous size and that it was not right for a densely populated area. There are concerns about the odour from the cesspits and they feel the problem of traffic management still hasn’t been addressed for the current level of site traffic.’
Tony Bisson, 66, has lived in Rue de la Carriere, near the vinery site, for 20 years and is a member of the housing association on his clos.
He said since a derelict house between the clos and the vinery had been knocked down, noise problems had got worse.
‘The site is meant to be in use between 9am and 3pm,’ he said.
‘But we can hear smashing glass from the site as early as 6am. This has a major neighbourhood impact that is not being considered.’ (from thisisguernsey)
