The plans have now been validated
NYWAG and the Parish Councils’ Group, which together have led opposition to the scheme, have gone over the application with a fine toothed comb. Some of the objections can be found on this page and throughout the website.

You can see the plans here: http://www.northyorks.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=17992.

What can you do to help?

  • It’s official. You can still write and object.

    A county council spokesman confirmed in the Yorkshire Post on December 20th that “The formal consultation period ended on December 16 and we have not extended that deadline. We will, however, continue to accept responses to the planning application until the county planning authority is in a position to make a decision.”

    You can still send an email or write to:

    • Shaun Robson, Planning Services, Business and Environmental Services Directorate, County Hall, Northallerton DL7 8AH.
    • It is important that you quote reference: NY/2011/0328/ENV
  • Fund Raising – It’s also time to start our fundraising efforts in earnest. Please organise an event and help spread the message. If you haven’t donated or sent a pledge, please do.
    • Send a cheque for as much as you can afford to The Treasurer, Nywag, High Farm Grange, Hopperton HG5 8NX.
    • Bank transfer to NYWAG – account no 81280139, sort code 40-12-28
    • Click one of the “Donate” buttons on the right
    • Complete our pledge form
  • Signs – Now’s the time to get the signs back up.
    • If you’ve still got your sign, please put it out again. If you would like a replacement or have a new site where we could put a sign, please contact steve@nywag.org.
  • Canvassing – we need volunteers to canvass and obtain signatures on petitions in towns across North Yorkshire. If you can help please contact barbara@nywag.org

NYWAG are a group of concerned residents. We represent over 10,000 people across the whole of North Yorkshire, who are opposed to incineration as a waste solution anywhere in the UK with a focus on the planned construction of an incinerator site at Allerton Park Quarry, between Harrogate and York.

Disclaimer

This campaign is not associated with anyone encouraging personal confrontation. All correspondence from NYWAG is sent out from Steve Wright, NYWAG or steve@nywag.org. NYWAG’s policy is to act reasonably to persuade the council and others (and the public inquiry when we get it) that this is an unnecessary and costly proposal for which there are much cheaper, greener alternatives. We do not encourage confrontation – anyone who does so is not associated with NYWAG.
