Final update on Town Farm Quarry, Crowton
KPC Meeting 25th August 2020
We learned last week that Casey (Enviro) the quarry operators have finally vacated the former quarry site and a local farmer is now seeding what is restored pastureland. All previous permissions to extract and infill have now expired and will not be renewed.
Town Farm Quarry had been in operation for well over 18 years. It had been the subject of a series of new applications and extensions of existing permissions for extending the operation over that time and bringing in infill material as well as sand extraction. Kingsley Parish Council were represented at an Appeal in 2017 when regrettably the Planning Inspectorate extended the operation. Three Parish Councils objected to a request for a further extension to operations in 2018 and were represented at the Cheshire West and Chester Planning Committee hearing which then finally refused to permit any further development at the site.
The Parish Council have been liaising with the new PCSO, Deborah Netherton (Contacft:https://www.kingsleyvillage.co.uk/index.php/news/neighbourhood-alert/322-contacting-the-police) who has posted the following:
Kingsley Parish Council now has its own website where you can find details about the Council, the agenda of forthcoming meetings (held monthly) and the minutes of past meetings.
