Time and time again Aggregate Industries' planning application for Straitgate Farm has been delayed for one reason or another.
Only last week we posted "it now looks likely that the determination of AI’s application, which missed the September DMC date, will miss the October DMC date too." This week DCC has confirmed that AI has indeed requested that determination of the Straitgate and Hillhead applications be deferred until the DMC meeting of 29 November.
Who knows whether this date will be met? Plainly not all is sorted in the AI camp, even after all these years. In fact, only yesterday AI’s traffic consultants were on site trying to work out how 150 cows could safely cross Ottery’s main road four times a day.
