Yours with thanks

IMPORTANT POINTS REGARDING YOUR LETTER 

·         Put your address at the top of each letter

·         Write the objection in your own words.  Form letters carry little weight.

·         Each letter counts as one objection.  Write one letter per person; not one per family.  Urge family and friends to get involved.  Every contribution is important.

·         Make it clear in the first sentence that you object to the application

·         Consider the sample objections listed on the next page.  You don’t have to use them all, just select those that concern you most.

·         You can mention as many objections as you like.  If you have any other concerns, state them

·         Finish by reserving your right to make further points once you have studied all the issues

 

SAMPLE OBJECTIONS

These are only guidelines – use your own words – make them count. 

·         To comply with existing JUDP Policies and the Welsh Assembly’s Tan 8 Guidance for such development the applicants are required to demonstrate that their proposals will not have significant impacts.

·         This they cannot do for the reasons set out in this objection

·         The number affected in a general sense will be substantial – 28,465.

·         The properties adversely affected directly is substantial – 1,416

·         Generating only somewhere in the region of 0.001 of UK electricity, it cannot be described as of overwhelming national interest.

·         It will, significantly and adversely affect 13 public and well used amenity spaces surveyed.

·         They are simply too large and high impact for this urban location.

·         They will have a seriously damaging visual impact on the Milford Haven Waterway.

·         Their height and location on the cliff edge rather than some distance inland is a major and new departure from the established impact of the refinery towers, all of which are set back from the coastline.

·         They will reduce the long term potential for better job creating, economic development of tourism and leisure development of the Haven. 

For these specific reasons, the proposal should be rejected as contrary to planning policy and guidance.
