One reader has offered an update on the situation of the SVEZ this week, as well as letting our readers know about an upcoming protest, happening this weekend.

Is everyone aware that the Council are trying to get permission in the shape of an LDO to build an industrial site on approximately 33 acres of prime agricultural  land which they are calling an Enterprise Park, at Old Mills, the field next to Wickes. 

I Would like to make the local community aware that there is to be a Cabinet meeting in Bath on 1st February where they will make a decision on this, this is the first step to this development going ahead. 

A peaceful protest has been organised for 21st January at 2pm, meeting at Old Mills in front of the Reflex Medical Building opposite Wickes, BS39 7SW. 

Please any one who is passionate about stopping this come and join us on the protest. We had approximately 600 objections on the last consultation. If all of you who objected turned up it would send a real message to B&NES that we do not want it on our doorstep. 

Please come, it may make a difference!
