@mcwright75 The council have asked the developer to commission a health report. We don't think they should be marking their own homework but there will be no decision until this is received.

As well as raising some serious cash for our fight, we were able to sell affordable clothing, toys, books & household items to some deserving members of our community. We are more than a nimby campaign- we are Altofts & Normanton coming together for the common good

Huge thanks to Paul & Joyce Dainton for hosting the amazingly successful garden sale where we raised over £1000 to fight the expansion of #ruddquarry.
Follow us on facebook for the last remaining #bargains!

In this week’s @WakeExpress again! @AgainstQuarry

We will be addressing the points made by Braithwaite Excavations in their latest submission in our group planning response, but this latest addition is another example of this inconsistent operator. Right First Time is obviously not a priority...

48hours left to register your objection to #ruddquarry. Can you amend your existing objection? Can you convince one other person to register their objection?

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

@MyWakefield We will be forwarding this evidence to planning with the incident number. Can we expect any enforcement action on this site which is routinely unsecured? https://t.co/xdPYKjpEq4

So Mr Braithwaite, you told us on @BBCLookNorth that #ruddquarry is safe and secure- explain to @WestYorksPolice how illegal off-road bikers got on this afternoon then...

Although thinking about it, the conservatory is likely to be permitted development, and you'd have to be quite silly to permit development like the disastrous #ruddquarry extension!

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

Hopefully this will mean an extension to deadlines for objections. Unless outrage at Mr Jones's conservatory crashed the planning website...? https://t.co/IAiVoK9Rsy

We're having problems with our planning website. If you want to comment on an application please email [email protected]
We're sorry for any inconvenience

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

We would like to make it clear that we absolutely refute the statements by Andrew Braithwaite on @BBCLookNorth that his site complies with planning and legislation. We have collected evidence of the site being in multiple planning and legal breaches and have passed to authorities

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

Tune in to @BBCLookNorth right now to see how this is affecting our community! #stopthequarry

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

All the kids from @altoftsjunior did an amazing job, especially future tv star Poppy! They did so well at putting the point across. https://t.co/VXTCFVyje4

[Fiona Blackstone @BlackstoneFiona]

Love my job! My school kids are ace! Thank you to @abijnews for coming to film today for @BBCLookNorth on the Rudd Quarry expansion plans and our objections!! @AgainstQuarry

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

@JBrokenshire @mhclg What about amending the planning system to balance the needs of community and business? Like giving communities more time to respond to projects like #ruddquarry with a large community impact?

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

@BBCLeeds @RadioAndrewE Come and see the beautiful green fields over Newlands which will be destroyed by proposed quarrying. Over 800 residents have now joined the fight to stop it!

[Sarah Lewis @mrsselewis]

I've just posted my objections - impact on children at school, dust & noise pollution, impact on our use of the field and footpaths & impact on wildlife/greenbelt - what are yours? #RuddQuarryExtension @MyWakefield https://t.co/9S2uEMnWGO

Standing room only at this evening's public meeting. Amazing turnout and great support for our cause for the people of Normanton and Altofts.

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

https://t.co/W9sZToaNkl Thanks for the support @RidingsFM !

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

Amazing turnout of over 150 people at Lee Brigg club tonight - thank you so much to everyone who attended!

[Residents Against Rudd Quarry Extension @AgainstQuarry]

@WestYorksPolice can you use this on the bikers who use unsecured Rudd Quarry as a bike track? We know from PACT meetings you're aware of this area being used! https://t.co/dyKwpcIfAZ

What do you think? https://t.co/pUjqRdBZLO
