A 12.5 metre 3G Mobile Phone mast at the entrance to the estate?

On the 1^st February a number of residents have received consultation letters from WFS (a company which installs telecoms equipment for Vodafone and O2) about a possible 12.5m 3G mobile phone base station installation. This base station is proposed for the site shown in the image above- the main entrance to our estate. The deadline (15^th February)  for the receipt of comments concerning this “pre-application consultation” will be passed before you receive this newsletter. However there will need to be a proper planning application submitted and passed before this installation can go ahead. I would like to submit a response on behalf of the residents association and would therefore welcome your comments about this proposal. Of course you should also submit your own comments to the local council planning meeting. To enable the easier collection of comments I have set up a form to allow you to submit your comments on the Lowry Hill residents association website (www.lhra.org.uk) You can also see images of the proposed planning application there. Alternatively you can send me your comments by email (lhrablog@gmail.com) or by post (226, Lowry Hill Road, Carlisle CA3 0EG) …or drop them round to me.
