The prolonged nuisance this depot creates is a direct result from it being positioned too closely to residential properties in the first place. The Residents surrounding the hollingdean depot need the urgent support of the environmental agency to act and respond directly to this problem.

The current impact on residents is unacceptable due to the noise of the facility and the severe odour, not only from the facility but also the large imposing HGVs. The road network is already vastly overcrowded and a further increase in HGV's will place further pressure on that area. The area is close to a number of schools and there is a serious safety issue currently with that road network due to the speed and volume of not only the HGV's but the regular traffic. An urgent review of the area (traffic management) is required prior to a serious incident involving pedestrians.

THIS IS MADNESS AND MUST BE OPPOSED!! I do not support this application.

The site was wrong in the first place, and longer hours will make it even worse for local residents.

]]> Mon, 29 Jul 2013 04:57:51 UTC 15583588 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/15580800?utm_medium=rss The wishes of the electorate were overruled when the original application to build these facilities on an inner city site close to hundreds of homes. Promises were made and constraints were put in place to limit the negative I pact of this inappropriate site. It is NOT in any way reasonable to allow Veolia to overturn these constraints and to create an unbearable environment for those who live within sight and smell of the place.

This must not be permitted to invade normal leisure times of residents at weekends and bank holidays. I agree with the comments about B&H council that, as Veolias only customer, they are the real instigators of the new proposals. B&H council are in effect dealing with complaints about their own operation - ridiculous.!

]]> Sat, 27 Jul 2013 02:17:39 UTC 15575827 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/15574044?utm_medium=rss Deplorable application. Give residents some peace from this facility.

]]> Fri, 26 Jul 2013 06:59:29 UTC 15571993 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/15571872?utm_medium=rss To extend operating hours would be cruel to those residents whose lives are blighted by noise and odour pollution. Remember this depot is in the middle of a densely populated area

]]> Fri, 26 Jul 2013 04:22:32 UTC 15571405 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/15571348?utm_medium=rss I wholeheartedly support this petition in an attempt to ameliorate conditions which blight people's lives ( in their homes and gardens) through noise and odours that they are unable to escape from.
While I understand the need to find somewhere to process waste, and endorse the need to improve Brighton's recycling levels, this should not be at the expense of the health and well being of a significant community in the city of Brighton. It is not right to solve one problem by creating another one.
The Veolia site in question was controversial from the start and strongly opposed within Brighton. The supposed safeguards set up to provide some protection at weekends when Veolia was granted planning permission to operate are no longer regarded as sacrosanct. If this attempt to move the goal posts and renege on commitments is allowed to happen it really will militate against trust in the official processes and procedures we need to have faith in. When safeguards are given they must be respected and not cynically be regarded as short term. Ordinary people need to be protected from unreasonable, harmful changes that they were initially assured would not happen.

It's the first thing I hear in the morning on most days of the week, if/when I open the rear windows of our house. On some days the sickening smell prevents me spending time outdoors.
