The Incinerator - Latest...
Waste Company appeals the planning decision-- again.
Latest
as of 9th August 2010….Ardley incinerator rethink bid rejected
An attempt to force
Oxfordshire County Council to rethink plans to sign up to an incinerator
near Bicester has ended in failure.
A cross-party group of 12 councillors called in the decision to commit to
a 25-year deal with waste firm Viridor for the plant at Ardley.
The councillors said it was not in the interests of the people of
Oxfordshire.
But the scrutiny committee voted five to three in favour of the scheme,
with two members abstaining. (Avoiding a price rise on the £600 million
may be better than the risk of a £6Million cancellation fee..... eh?)
It means Oxfordshire County Council will sign the contract in September,
despite Viridor not having planning permission.
A planning inspector is due to report the outcome of a public inquiry next
month.
The council says an incinerator represents the best deal to get rid of the
county's non-recyclable waste.
ENERGY company Viridor is appealing again against Oxfordshire County Council’s decision to refuse planning permission for an incinerator at Ardley, near Bicester.
In October 2009, county councillors refused to grant planning permission for an incinerator at Ardley or at Sutton Courtenay near Abingdon.
Viridor’s proposal at Ardley was the council’s preferred option, and this morning the company announced that it was appealing against the refusal.
A spokesman for the company said Viridor has submitted documents to the Government’s Planning Inspectorate, which will be reviewed and validated in the next few days.
