Last Tuesday, I received a letter about the proposed waste facility in Hollingdean. Why is this the first information I have been sent?
Why is the council considering building such a site in the centre of our city? Doesn't Brighton already have a traffic problem, without an extra 50 or more larger lorries blocking our roads?
What about the impact on Down's School's lovely but tiny playground? The cries of happy children would be drowned by the noise of lorries and smashing glass.
Are the council forcing this development because it is cheaper and quicker than the alternatives?
