Draft Nottinghamshire Minerals Local Plan

Objection to MP2s. Recognize a need for sand and gravel but a alternative site must be found. This is not out of self interest but concern of the damage to the area. Please do reconsider, the price to be paid by the damage to Barton, Attenborough Nature reserve would be too high if permission is granted. I wish to protect the younger generation, there must be a less damaging site which can be made available.
My objection to sand and gravel provision MP2s Mill Hill NR Barton in Fabis
I write (as a worried oldie) who recognizing the need for sand and gravel think that alternative site MUST be found in this instance.
At my age I do not have self interest here but am generally worried about the short & long term damage to the area if the go ahead is given.
I have read (and re-read) the proposed development plan and am worried that the Notts County Council has includied the site in their new draft minerals local plan.
PLEASE PLEASE do reconsider. The price to be price to be paid by the damage to Barton and the adjacent Attenborough Nature reserve (a treasured asset which would inevitably be damage if planning permission is granted) is too high.
I wish to protect the younger generation there must be less damaging sites which can be made available.
