Aggregate Industries just can’t get its act together at Straitgate Farm.
In November, we warned that there were More delays to come and last week AI duly agreed with DCC "to an extension of the determination date from 31st January 2018 to 30th April 2018."
What’s the chance of AI’s planning application being determined by then? AI claims:
at present [10 January] we are confident of meeting your timetable for the April committee
But AI has no idea; it’s just wishful thinking. Ever since AI first applied to quarry Straitgate Farm in June 2015 there has been one delay after another. As things stand, AI’s scheme is still undeliverable - for the reasons previously outlined on this blog. No weight can therefore be assigned to AI’s latest claim.
How long is DCC going to keep entertaining this charade? Because:
- not, as in AI’s case, the norm.
